Questions to Ask When You Call
You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

What Families Say
“Carmody Flynn cared for our family during the funeral service for my wife, Barbara, and I truly cannot say enough about the kindness and compassion they showed us. Dave guided us through most of the planning with patience, warmth, and great attention to detail. On the day of the service, Steve stepped in seamlessly and supported us with the same gentle care and professionalism. In a moment filled with grief and uncertainty, their calm presence helped carry us through. They treated Barbara with dignity and treated our family with genuine heart. That meant more than words can express. I am deeply grateful, and I would recommend Carmody Flynn to any family who wants to know their loved one will be cared for with true compassion. — Ernst”

“Carmody accommodated our family from start to finish! Our family needed a quick turnaround time due to out of state travel. They arrange a beautiful and successful funeral in a matter of 48 hours. Casey was hands on and a great funeral director! I 100% recommend Carmody to take special care of your funeral wants and needs.”
— Belinda Spriggs
“Steve Hall and the staff at Carmody-Flynn were very caring and compassionate in helping with planning my dad's funeral and during the funeral. After funeral they have reached out checking on me and my family. That was so thoughtful. My family was very pleased with our care and service from Carmody-Flynn.”
