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
“Our entire family was so impressed by the staff at Gunderson Funeral Home. With a large family, we were concerned about finding a funeral home with enough space that was still close to Sauk Prairie. Gunderson - Middleton was the perfect space. Annie put together beautiful printing and an incredible tribute video. Christina and John assisted our family with planning the services and executing them. From a final ride and procession out to our family dairy farm, to a beautiful mass at St. Al's, the Gunderson team was always right there to make sure everything went smooth. Joann made sure we always had water, Kleenex, and the grandkids were taken care of during the visitation. Matt, Pete, and Elmer provided the additional emotional support and assistance with logistics. We are lucky to have many great funeral providers in the area, but our family truly appreciated the personalized service from Gunderson.”

“As a resident of NJ I expected to have a difficult time making arrangements for a loved one that had passed in Madison, WI. Fast forward to Gunderson Funeral Home whom I was referred to. From my initial phone call to discussions with planners and directors, Gunderson made the process easy and comforting. Communication was constant from start to finish and they even surprised me with the opportunity for aftercare at my request. I highly recommend Gunderson Funeral Home to anyone that requires compassionate and personalized care in a time of need.”
