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.

“Our experience with Piersall was amazing. When you’re in the middle of grief and loss and everyone is emotional, Randy and his crew were very professional yet extremely personable. They knew exactly when to step in with suggestions and when to back off and let the family make decisions. Straightforward with costs. The perfect balance of professional and efficient, compassionate and caring. What a blessing in our time of grief and profound loss.”
