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.

“My recent experience at Featheringill regarding my dearly departed fiancee (Alan Barrie Fleischman) was excellent. Kori Truesdale was very helpful every step of the way: knowledgeable, professional, pleasant to speak to and a good listener in my time of stress and concern. We processed a pre-plan since Alan was very ill and he had passed shortly after those arrangements were set, on Feb 9, 2026. Kori also coordinated with Yvette Lynch of Singing Hills Memorial Park, El Cajon, CA (Alan's burial place) and was sensitive to my requests regarding Alan's wishes for his religion's traditional burial practices. I would definitely consider Featheringill Mortuary in the future, if needed. Thank you for all your invaluable help. - Sandra Theresa Therriault”

“Featheringill Mortuary – El Cajon Blvd, San Diego Today I picked up my dad’s ashes, and it struck me how light they were compared to how heavy it once felt trying to help him move when he was alive. That contrast alone says so much about this moment — and I’m incredibly grateful that Featheringill Mortuary carried so much of the weight for me during one of the hardest times of my life. What makes this experience even more remarkable is that I had only called Featheringill that same afternoon to ask about pricing and availability, along with a few other mortuaries. I didn’t realize then that I would need their services that very same day — and when I did, they made everything happen seamlessly, with genuine care and compassion. From start to finish, Featheringill took care of every single detail with professionalism, kindness, and grace. I had never gone through anything like this before, and they made what felt overwhelming feel calm, organized, and manageable. A special thank you to Paul Fiskratti — he is truly one of a kind. So personable, kind, and reassuring. He never rushed me, never made me feel like “just another case,” and always made sure I understood each step. His warmth made an incredibly painful process feel human. Featheringill handled everything: • Death certificates • Burial permits • Coordination of my dad’s burial at Miramar National Cemetery • Clear guidance on what needed to be done next They also included an urn in the cost — a TSA-approved, non-biodegradable urn — which was practical, appropriate, and a very fair value. They went above and beyond by providing Featheringill Mortuary’s Abide Service: Resource Guide and Additional Support, at no charge, to help point me in the right direction for closing accounts and accessing additional resources. That level of care truly matters. I cannot say enough about Featheringill Mortuary. If you ever find yourself needing these services — especially unexpectedly or for the first time — I highly recommend them. They made a heartbreaking experience feel cared for every step of the way. Thank you, Featheringill, for treating my dad — and me — with such dignity and compassion. — Felina”
