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
“We cannot adequately express how wonderful Stephanie, David, and Overman-Jones were when our mom recently passed away. Stephanie sat with my sister and I just two hours after getting the heartbreaking call that Mom had passed. She was so incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely compassionate as she gently guided us through the decisions and steps necessary to make the arrangements. She listened, suggested, and worked to plan a beautiful service that was exactly what our mom wanted. It was indeed perfect! And David showed the utmost respect and kindness as he escorted our mom to Overman-Jones later that morning. My sister and I sincerely thank them both. They are very special people who have answered a special calling. We will not hesitate to recommend Overman-Jones Funeral Home and Cremation Services.”

“I feel strange reviewing a funeral home but I am doing it because of the great services and staff at Overman Jones. My friend passed away from an overdose a few years ago and from the moment I walked through the door, every single employee was so kind, welcoming, and SO respectful. I could definitely feel their compassion and their group resiliency. This is a tough line of work to do and I am still so grateful thy the funeral was held here. I highly recommend it.”
— Elizabeth
“From the day after our Dad passed away Tom made it so easy to help my mother with the details and plans for all of the services required when someone passes. Everyone we met from Dave to Clayton was so warm and comforting and open to any ideas or questions. I cannot thank them enough for making this part of the loss of a love one stress free. I can whole heartedly recommend Overman Jones, we were even able to play music list of songs my Dad liked during the wake, they also made my father look as good as someone can be after they’ve passed. Thank you again to all of you.”
