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
“Family First was there for my family during the unexpected death of my mother. Jason and his team (Jason, wife, kim, cole, hunter, and others) went above and beyond throughout the entire process. The services family first provided were extremely professional with a very affordable price compared to others. Jason and his team were never pushy, provided consistent communication and provided compassion during the time of need. If you're in need of services please don't hesitate to contact Family First.”
