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.

“My mom pased away on Oct 31 2025!. Blackstones was her choice she picked years ago. She couldn't have picked a better funeral home. I think Danielle is the one that prepped her for her viewing. She did an amazing job. My mom looked beautiful. Her hair her makeup and her nails were perfect.she always told me I hope everyone doesn't walk by me and say how good I look. I said sorry mom but you looked beautiful. Thank you so much for all you did Kathy and Danielle.”

“I cannot say enough positive words about Blackstone Funeral Home. We just had my father in laws funeral yesterday. Every member of the staff that we interacted with was professional, kind, compassionate and truly helpful. The patience they had was incredible. They listened and were so good with my heartbroken mother in law. We are very glad we went with Blackstone.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better service for my dad. From the beginning to the end the staff was amazing! Kathy is so passionate and caring for what she does. And McKenzie was such a blessing to work with. She goes above and beyond for the families. She is exactly the person you need when you’re going through a difficult time already. As well as Kathy and Danielle. But the majority of our time was dealing with McKenzie. So, we got to know her the most. So thank you to Blackstone Funeral Home for giving our father the send off he deserved. ❤️”
