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
“A Life Celebration by Franklin provided our family with exceptional care during one of the most painful moments of our lives. Mrs. Franklin was incredibly supportive and patient, guiding us gently through every detail and offering comfort when we needed it most. Her kindness made a world of difference. Mr. Barry always found a way to put a smile on our faces, even through the grief. His warm personality and gentle humor brought small moments of relief during a very heavy time, and we are truly grateful for that. Ms. Kirsten was super friendly and extremely helpful from start to finish. She answered every question we had regarding my grandmother’s funeral, and she did so with patience and understanding. She even listened to my crazy humor—knowing it was my way of coping—and never made me feel judged or alone. Her compassion and willingness to be present with us meant so much. Together, their team created an atmosphere of genuine care, respect, and comfort. We couldn’t have asked for better support, and we highly recommend A Life Celebration by Franklin to any family in need of compassionate, heartfelt service.”
