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
“Dave and Melissa Lawson are the best. I seriously think they are touched by angels. In a world today finding compassion that these 2 have it .... there are no words to explain their love they share. They don't just work here. They are family now. It is a blessing from God that we were blessed to have these 2 take care of the love of my life. I could go on and on. But I won't. Until you experience the love they share with your love ones. It would not be far till you meet them. Im old school and I believe in customer service, but this isn't customer service. This is passion and love. They have the biggest hearts. I can't say enough. Like I said earlier they are family now.”

“Deegan Memorial Chapel was amazing. Despite the grief of losing our father, the staff, Nicole and Annmarie were so helpful, considerate, patient and Professional. They really catered to our needs. Thank you so much! The facilities are also well kept and are a nice setting to say farewell to our beloved dad.”
— Pete Posada
“Dave Lawson and the Deegan Memorial Team went above and beyond to make sure that I was able to see my father one last time before I had to leave. Up against many hurdles, Dave was a calm sense of peace during the emotional chaotic storm that I was weathering through. Through it all I felt that his words and actions were genuinely from the heart and that he was not just going through the motions with us. Dave and his team at Deegan's were able to prepare my father for a viewing for me in less than 24hrs so that I could see him one last time before flying home. I cannot even put into words what that meant to me, and all I have is a full heart of gratitude towards Dave and his team.”
