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 were very impressed with the care, compassion and attention to detail we received from Curnow. The team we worked with was so approachable, patient with my many questions and handled the transporting of my mother seamlessly out of state. The staff made this difficult time so much more bearable.”
— Holly D
“Everyone at Curnow made us feel like we mattered. They were thoughtful and kind. The pickup of my husband was kind of a long wait. That was hard. But they were priced reasonably and made it an easy process. Their free grief counseling is the best!!”
— Linda Johnson
“When I called Curnow Funeral Home, I requested a simple cremation with no urn. (My wife wanted to be scattered near a lake that she loved.) I felt support from the representative at Curnow. She was calm, asked a few questions to make sure she understood what I wanted. She did not suggest or recommend any additional services or products. I felt calm and reassured in dealing with her. Similarly, the delivery of the ashes to me was a calm, low-key meeting. The follow-up service that Curnow provided to me was a surprise. I received a series of emails suggesting things that needed to be done in the next month or so. That outreach was very helpful (comforting) to me. I am very pleased with my dealing with the Curnow Funeral Home.”
