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

What Families Say
“Planning and executing a mother's wake and funeral is something one can never prepare for both mentally and emotionally. I'm so fortunate to have placed that huge responsibility with Brian and Patrick Gannon. They have an unparralled reputation and certainly lived up to it. I met Brian to make pre-need arrangements 3 1/2 years prior to my mom's passing. He took all the time I needed and gave me such great recommendations. When my mother passed, all I had to do was call him and he took care of everything, including making the arrangements with Our Lady of Victory Basilica, in a timely manner. I never felt rushed, only valued. And, my mother looked just like the photograph I gave him. She'd be so proud! My family and friends marveled at the service extended to us by the Gannon family. I wholeheartedly recommend them.”
