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
“My mom passed away Aug. 21, 2025. Our family learned a lot about the funeral business. None of it was pleasant. We went to make the arrangements and set a date. We decided on the 4th of September because they said that was the earliest they could do the service. But, the burial was going to be 2 hours after the service. That made no sense to us, but we had no choice. Then, my dad wanted to see my mom and we were told that there is a charge of 250.00 each time my dad wanted to see her before the viewing on the 4th. This is his wife! My mother! And it felt like she was being held hostage! Something about changing her clothes and making her look nice! We have seen her at her worst and she was dressed when they took her! We didn’t care about ant of that! I had never heard of such a thing. It was very difficult to be told that we had to make an appointment and pay to see her! The day of the service, the air conditioner was not working and it was quite warm. After the service, they had told our Pastor they might be able to do the burial sooner. We were able to bury her after the service but it was frustrating that this was not a given when we made the arrangements. My parents had already paid for their headstone and as of today, we are still waiting for the headstone to be set in the ground. The family has been frustrated with all of these set backs, extra charges and thinking that since they had made all their arrangements years ago, this process would have been smoother. This experience has been an eye opener for all of us and I am not looking forward to having to do this again with my dad. Very disappointed in this whole process.”

“Ryan and his staff truly went above and beyond for our family after my mom passed away. After an extremely difficult and distressing experience with Rose Hills in Southern California, where her final resting place was arranged, Ryan stepped in and helped us navigate and deal with those challenges with compassion and professionalism. His care, concern, and dedication to ensuring my mom received the funeral she deserved were far beyond anything we could have hoped for. He also worked tirelessly to advocate for us and to make sure we were treated fairly by the funeral home she was transferred to—at a time when we were exhausted, grieving, and overwhelmed. If you are looking for honest, caring, and knowledgeable professionals to stand by you during the worst moments of your life, McDonald’s Chapel and Ryan are exactly where you need to be.”
