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.

“I cannot say enough kind things about Kandice and Karen here at Dell Riggs Funeral Home. During one of the most difficult times in our lives, they treated my sister and I with such genuine compassion, patience, and care. They never rushed us, answered every question with kindness, and made sure we understood each step of the process. What truly meant the most was how they followed up afterward to check on us and make sure we were okay. That level of thoughtfulness goes far beyond professionalism it really showed heart. We are deeply grateful for the time they took with us and for the comfort they brought to our family. God bless.”

“Kandice Saulsberry and her team came highly recommended and after my experience with the loss of my beloved mother, I understood why. Kandice truly embodies compassion, care and patience. My situation required my looking for a reputable funeral home in Indiana to work with to have my mother transported to Toledo. Kandice took a great burden off of me. She provided recommendations and I selected, so there was no bias. She continually assured me that services were about what I desired for my mother's homegoing and that Dale Riggs was there to provide a service. She definitely listens! We were working with a tight window as I wanted services completed as quickly as possible. Even with the out of state piece, everything was seamless. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thanks again for everything Kandice and team for assisting through every phase during what was the most painful, emotional and stressful times of my life. Rest in Peace Sharon D. Cook, until we meet again 🕊”
