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
“The Najera family would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Vondel L. Smith & Sons. From start to finish, the owners were kind, professional, and made us feel truly cared for during our time of mourning. We can’t thank you enough for treating us like family.”
— Alma Najera
“Vondel Smith has been so helpful to us through a difficult time. There's no question that a family owned funeral home does things differently and with complete care for the families they serve. We are forever grateful to them.”
— Carmen Gallander
“This is truly a family oriented business. Derek and his crew helped me to coordinate the transport from Florida and burial of my moms ashes in Oklahoma City. Because of Covid 19 I could not be present but Vondel Smith helped me make all the arrangements and we were able to Face Time the service so I could virtually be there to watch. They were also wonderful and were so helpful to me when my father passed away in 2012. At that time my mom was too distraught to take care of things and I had never had to make funeral arrangements before. They were helpful, kind, and didn't try to pressure me into buying a lot of services that my mom couldn't afford. Highly recommend!”
— Kathy Peterson
