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
“If I could give a zero I would. We lost our 18 yr old daughter and laid her to rest at Rivermonte. The maintenance of the grounds are horrible. I paid an exorbitant amount for a tree and they killed it then replaced with a twig of a tree and killed that one too. They barely get it mowed and looks like it doesn’t get weed eated that I can see. I get the run around anytime I’ve called and seems the manager is never around when I call. If I could afford to mover her I would. Rivermonte is part of Klinger Cope. I would caution anyone if doing business there”

“Debbie Stafford is fantastic to work with!!!! My wife and I wanted to donate some burial plots to a local church. After a series of hiccups over several months, I talked to Debbie and within a few days she was able to clear up the issue and process the donation. She quickly understood what the issue was, found out where things had gone off track and facilitated a successful conclusion. We can't praise Debbie's dedication to this given the demands of her other duties. Thank you Debbie!!!”

“My little brother and my grandparents are buried at this cemetery! Over six years ago this place kept the grass cut and everything maintained! The past two years, on Memorial Day weekend, the grass has not been cut, and there was grass all over the Headstones from previous mowings! My little brother's headstone has settled and is slanted with a hole on the backside. My mother called upset last year and asked them to fix it. I visited my brothers grave this morning and they've done nothing! I wish my family would have never bought plots from these people as they simply don't care! Avoid burrying your loved ones at this cemetery!”
