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
“Temple Memorial Chapel was highly recommended by a friend, so when the need came for a funeral home, I did not look elsewhere. Constantin was amazing to work with — pleasant, friendly , and knowledgeable. He guided me at every step of the way, offering suggestions and/or advice when needed or asked. He was efficient and followed through with all aspects of our funeral, making the day of the funeral seamless.”
— Dr. B. Trueger
“Konstantin is a special person who ensured the funeral for my husband was handled with personal care, compassion & flawless. I can highly recommend as would all the people who attended the funeral.”
— Carolyn Sanders
“This home was recommended to me, and it made a very hard time so much easier. Most of us don't really know what to expect when someone passes away, and the care and information we received from Mr. Konstantin and his staff made all the difference to my family. There are so many options and decisions to be made, and I appreciate all the patience and answering all my questions. We had the opportunity to pre-plan, and they are very knowledgeable of all bureaucratic things and possible benefits your family member may have. No pushing us to do things one way or another, no promoting of any service or additional cost of what we didn't want. They will honor your wishes and timing. Also appreciated being asked about the decedent's favorite music so it could be played in his transportation to the funeral home, very nice and comforting touch. We are very grateful, and will recommend them to anyone we know in the NYC area who might need the services.”
