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.
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
“From the very first phone call, Meldrum Mortuary & Crematory treated my mom with dignity, compassion, and genuine care. During one of the hardest moments of my life, they made an overwhelming process feel almost effortless. We spoke with several other places, but Meldrum stood out immediately. The way they spoke about my mom with respect, patience, and honor. They made it clear we were in the right hands. Every interaction felt thoughtful and human, never rushed or transactional. Because I was out of town, they graciously held onto my mom’s remains until I was able to return, removing so much stress during an already painful time. Julie and Sirrene were nothing short of angels. Their kindness, empathy, and attention to detail carried me through each step. What has meant the most is that their care didn’t end after the service. On our birthday this year, they sent me a heartfelt message honoring my mom. And today, on the anniversary of her passing, they reached out again with words that truly touched my heart. That level of compassion is rare and unforgettable. I cannot speak highly enough about Meldrum Mortuary & Crematory. If you are facing the loss of a loved one and need a place that will truly honor them and care for you in the process, this is the place to go.”

“Tessa was amazing through this entire process. The love and warmth was unmatched. It is very difficult to lay your child to rest, and for me this is the 2nd time I’ve had to do it, so it was incredibly difficult. Tessa took away my stress by answering every question and being available any time I needed her. I’m very grateful to all that helped make this moment special for all of my family. Tessa even went one step further and had a custom design put on the urn. I will forever be grateful to Meldrum Mortuary!!!”
