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
“Allen Summerhill is absolutely amazing and has equally amazing staff. When working to set up an unplanned funeral, Alexis is extremely responsive and empathetic to our situation, over communicating with all our needs. Noble, the celebrant, was also phenomenal. He came over and got to know our lost loved one through us, and took great care in his speech for him. What is truly impressive; there was not a single moment where they looked to maximize revenue through a grieving family. No up-selling, no pushing unnecessary products or services. They simply asked our wants and needs, told us the price, and accommodated. I am so thrilled we found them. They are a blessing to me and my family during this dark time. Thank you Alexis, Noble, & Allen Summerhill.”

“My husband passed a month ago and Alicia and the Summerhill funeral home were so comforting. They handled everything so efficiently and compassionately and made all the arrangements for a military funeral with honors for my husband. We are forever grateful for their help.”
— Lynda Carlson
