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
“Rayna and Doug did an excellent job with the memorial/burial for my dad, Dave Ford...aka The Jewel T Man. The entire staff at John Brown gave us peace and comfort with their professionalism and comforting words. Sorry for when their services are needed but they are the best. They've helped my family thru a couple generations now and there is nothing but good to say.”
— Jim Ford
“We recently used the John B. Brown Funeral Home for our beloved Uncle Donnie’s services, and we cannot say enough about the expert service we received. A special “thank-you”, to Doug Hallinan, for his kindness, and attention to detail, knowing that everything was being handled, really gave us comfort and peace. Pamela & Mitchell Steinman”
