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
“"I recently had the experience of working with the Epstein Memorial Chapel after the death of my mother, and I couldn't be happier with their service! Barbara was excellent, caring, and made the whole process incredibly easy. Her efficiency and timely manner were top-notch, taking care of every detail with compassion and professionalism. I'd also like to highlight the wonderful Rabbi Dan Betzel, who was recommended by Barbara - he was amazing. His guidance and support meant a lot to our family during a difficult time. and he delivered a beautiful eulogy. Overall, I would highly recommend the Epstein Memorial Chapel for anyone looking for a caring and professional team to support them through a tough time."”

“In one of the most difficult moments our family has faced, the team at Epstein Memorial Chapel provided truly exceptional care, rooted in deep respect for Jewish tradition and an unwavering commitment to compassion. From the very first phone call, they guided us with kindness, clarity, and patience. They honored every aspect of our family's wishes and our loved one’s Jewish faith—from the prompt scheduling in accordance with halacha, to the coordination with the chevra kadisha, and the thoughtful attention to customs like the plain pine casket and shmirah. We are especially grateful to David Levy, who gently and respectfully led us through the Kriah ritual with both reverence and sensitivity, helping us feel spiritually grounded in our grief. And a heartfelt thank-you to Barbara Bejeault, whose compassion was evident in every interaction. She went above and beyond—not only providing steady support throughout the planning—but even hand-delivered the death certificates to our home, a gesture that truly touched our hearts. What stood out most was how seamlessly Epstein Memorial blended professionalism with warmth. They anticipated our needs, gave us space to grieve, and ensured every detail of the funeral service reflected our love and respect for Aunt Judy. Our family is deeply grateful. Epstein Memorial Chapel is a true blessing to the Columbus Jewish community, and we wholeheartedly recommend them to any family in need of guidance and comfort during a time of loss.”
