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
“Memory Gardens is a well known and large cemetery in Tampa. The grounds are well kept, with large oak trees which shade a good part of the gravesides. I was trying to help my brother find the grave of his former father in-law, J.C. Johnson. The staff was extremely helpful in providing maps and guidance. I would periodically stop and walk around exploring where he was buried. It was very serene and well marked. Unfortunately, no one had placed a ground plaque for either he or his wife, Lillian; but, at one time there had been a vase at the site, which is no longer there. I blessed his burial area and prayed for his soul. My brother was glad to know when he'd passed away and where he is resting. He was a wonderful and an engaging man.”
