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?”
Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.
“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
Under the FTC Funeral Rule, funeral homes must give price information by telephone and a written General Price List when you visit in person. Federal law does not require them to send the list by mail or email. You can select individual goods and services and use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“I am writing this review on Mr Craig Barber. What a breath of fresh air. He instinctively seemed to know what our needs and desires were. He took the time to explain our options and explain the choices that we made. Friendly and treated us with compassion throughout. Thanks again Craig!”

“My family recently lost our dad, and we are deeply grateful for the care and professionalism shown by Fort Myers Memorial Gardens Funeral Home. Years ago, our parents arranged everything in advance, and when the time came, every one of our father’s wishes was carried out exactly as he hoped. We worked closely with Sean, one of the funeral directors, whose attentiveness and respect for every detail brought us tremendous comfort. His calm voice, warm demeanor, and clear experience made us feel supported and secure throughout the entire process. He guided us with patience, compassion, and clarity at a time when we needed it most. From start to finish, Fort Myers Memorial Gardens Funeral Home was responsive, supportive, and truly attentive. They honored our father in a way he would have been proud of, and for that, our family is sincerely grateful.”
— Jeff Davis
“Craig was absolutely amazing. He is one of the most personable, professional people I’ve worked with and he kept an upbeat and respectful attitude and sense of humor during our difficult time, which as so appreciated. Literally no aspect of the process was a surprise or unclear, as Craig explained every single detail, option, price, timeline, etc. which is so helpful in times like this when families are either navigating unfamiliar territory or are just too overwhelmed to make choices or plans. Hopefully we won’t need to work with Craig again anytime soon due to the nature of the business, but we will absolutely recommend and work with Craig the next time we have a loss in our Florida family.”
