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
“Woodlawn Memorial Services in Forest Park handled our beloved mother’s arrangements with dignity, compassion, and professionalism from start to finish. During one of the most difficult times for our family, their staff was patient, respectful, and attentive to every detail. Ashley, in particular, handled our mother’s services with great care and compassion. She guided us through each step, answered our questions, and made sure everything was carried out just as we wished. The service was beautiful, well-organized, and a true reflection of the love and respect we have for our mother. We are grateful for the care they showed our family and would confidently recommend Woodlawn Memorial Services to anyone in need of thoughtful and professional funeral arrangements.”

— Cheryl Duckworth
“I did not use the services of this funeral home because I found out about them when I started shopping for cemeteries and I regret not having them provide the full service for my wife's funeral. This place feels calm and their services are exceptional. I only used them to purchase the burial plots for my wife and pre purchased space for myself right next to my wife and committed to them performing my services when my time comes.”
