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?”
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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

What Families Say
“Paula Herron and the staff at Sell-Herron Funeral Home were outstanding in helping my sister in all funeral arrangements for her husband's passing. The funeral service was beautiful, and Paula made sure that all of my sister's needs were met with dignity and respect. The conversations I've had with Paula have always been pleasant, very productive and have shown me that Paula is the person you want in handling all funeral arrangements. I highly recommend Sell-Herron Funeral Home and can't thank Paula and her staff enough for their dedication, caring nature and superior professionalism. Ed Sinclair”

“The folks at the Herron Funeral Home are simply fantastic. They’re compassionate and truly care about what they’re doing and the people they’re working with. At their Bethlehem location they have a crematory on-site. My father was cremated there... however, due to me living in Colorado I was unable to pick-up my father’s ashes for three years. They safely secured my father’s ashes for those three years until I was in the area again and able to recover them. Thanks Dimitri and family.”

“*Paula C. Herron* I was working very hard over the summer making my kitchen wheelchair accessible not completed yet. My father was scheduled to come home Wednesday, I get a call he had passed away the night before coming home... left me in a state of shock stuck in a tornado! Not knowing what to do next? I call Sell Herron. Paula returns my call... Step by step she explains to me what needs to be done and what's going to happen very simple the rest she takes care of as though she held my hand along the way because my brain was in a fog/shocked! Before you knew it was all over sun comes out fog starts to clear knowing he's not in anymore pain but resting in peace. Dear sweet Paula C. Herron, thank you so very much, don't know you but I truly love you!🌹”
