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
“East Lawn Funeral Home and Memorial Park exceeded my expectations during the most difficult time of my life. I was married to my husband for 30 years, and his passing has been devastating. Joshua Sheets is the person to ask for—he was kind, sympathetic, never pushy, and always took the time to answer my questions. If he didn’t know an answer, he made sure to find out and follow up. Joshua oversaw both the funeral service and the burial ceremony at the VA National Cemetery and took great pride in dressing my husband exactly how we wanted. The funeral home was very clean and smelled pleasant, and all the staff went above and beyond to help us. I have attended many funerals, and this was by far the best experience. Thank you for the lasting memories of my husband.”
— Betty Page
