“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.

“I am more than happy to share my experience with the community and this establishment. I have trusted this family funeral service since 1985, and over the years, they have truly become like family to me as well. During my time of bereavement, Mr. Aubrey Bushelon was compassionate, professional, and deeply dedicated from the moment my loved one’s remains were removed through the planning and completion of her services. He showed genuine care, patience, and meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that my loved one was honored with dignity and respect. During one of the most difficult moments of my life, Mr. Bushelon provided comfort, guidance, and reassurance, making an overwhelming process far more manageable. His dedication and empathy did not go unnoticed, and my family and I are deeply grateful for the support he provided. I highly recommend Aubrey Bushelon Funeral & Cremation Services to anyone seeking compassionate and professional care during a time of loss. I will continue to entrust them with my family’s needs when the time comes.”

“My family has been doing business with Aubrey Bushelon for a lot of years. I would not trust my Loved one with anyone else. When my father passed I was offered a discount at another funeral home. I turned it down because at Aubrey Bushelon they treat you with care, like taking care of their own. I appreciated that the most. I would suggest that anyone who loses a loved one consider Aubrey Bushelon they have never disappointed my family when preparing them for their final resting place.”

“Jason of Bushelon Funeral and Cremation was there from the start to the finish. I contacted Jason a few days before my Mom passed, when that day came he made it his personal business to be the one to come and get her. Before the viewing there were some things I did not like pertaining to Mommy’s hair but he got right on it by calling the beautician right back there to correct the problem. The service was wonderful then we ran into a problem at the cemetery to the point they had to take Mommy back to the funeral home, it took the cemetery 3 days to correct their mess up but through it all Jason was there to the end and kept me informed about everything. If you every in need of a good funeral director I recommend Jason of Bushelon Funeral and Cremation of Birmingham, Alabama.”
