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.

“Unfortunately and fortunately Mr. Kelly Smith, Has taken care of multiple family members. In my personal opinion Kelly is not just doing a job. He's walking in his God given ministry. He sincerely cares about your well being on more than just a physical level, during your bereavement. He helps you every step of the way. He's able to give non bias advice, when needed. He takes a very humble pridefullness in his work. He's very detailed, even with small things, that a person might not even notice. Maya Angelo said " You might not remember what a person said. But you will always remember how they made you feel." Kelly held an umbrella over me outside in a storm, while everyone was inside eating. When he wrapped his arm around me. He side don't worry it's going to be alright one morning. It wasn't just his words, but it was his genuine expression of comfort that will forever be in my heart.”
