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
“Little’s Funeral Home really care about the families during difficult times. They are patient and have a lot of great people to help you through the funeral process. I can’t say enough good things about their staff and how they care about making sure things are all taken care of during one of the hardest processes to navigate.”
— Karen Pierce
“They did both my grandparents funerals. Both were lovely. And they were so helpful and attentive to my family during this time. I have also been many other funerals here over the years. It's nice to go to a place where they know almost everyone by name. Definitely a family funeral home that has served the community for generations. I highly recommend their services. Brian and Mr little are the best .”
— Carrie DiLeo
“My young nephew passed away unexpectedly on Thanksgiving. The next morning, Brian at Little's Funeral Home reached out to my family to make arrangements. Three days later, we held a family service followed by a public visitation. Brian and his staff were there every step of the way to guide my family through the process. They did an incredible job to ensure that the private memorial service, the public visitation, and the cremation went exactly as we wished. Shortly before the service, we provided a script to Brian with cues for playing music and dimming lights. Thanks to Brian's assistance, the service was a beautiful memorial for our loved one. Afterward, more than 500 people showed up for the public visitation. Little's did a fantastic job moving people through the facilities. Little's treated my family as though my nephew was one of their own. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Brian, to you and your staff. Your support has meant so much to my family.”
