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
“My dad passed away a little over a month ago and the people at Stowers Funeral Home were amazing at helping me and my family decide his end of life plans. I'd like to personally mention Ron Rusher, as he was incredibly helpful during this difficult time for my family. There was no pressure for high sales, he took his time with my family to make sure we understood everything he was presenting, and offered his condolences on more than one occasion. He offered us privacy with my dad's urn upon pickup, went through each slide of the initial presentation thoroughly and made sure all of our questions were answered fully. His dedication to his profession is why I would highly recommend using Stowers Funeral Home. I also spoke with another gentleman over the phone, I do believe his name was Justin? He was kind, courteous, and prompt with answering my inquiry and ensuring me that my dad was in good hands. I hadn't heard back from them in about 9 business days and I was concerned about when I could bring my dad's urn home, I called in and he assured me that he would reach out to the doctor to sign the autopsy report. I got a call back from him within 10 minutes stating that everything was signed and the ball was rolling for my dad's cremation. He was very sweet when I expressed my concern about having to wait another 2 weeks for my dad and assured me that I wouldn't have to wait that long. Sure enough, about a week later I got the call that my dad was ready for pick up. The only thing I would say, and it's really not even a negative thing, was that I had initially put in my inquiry online and got a call within a few minutes to set up an initial meeting with one of the funeral directors and I still got about 2-3 calls after the fact to set up a meeting. It was mildly annoying at first, but in hindsight, it really just showed me their dedication in making sure all inquiries were handled. I extend my deepest gratitude to the staff at Stowers Funeral Home 💕 thank you so much for everything!”

“My husband and I were researching cremation services by national programs when during a presentation Dignity was mentioned. I remembered that Stowers funeral home is a part of Dignity and made an appointment . We were professionally given all the formation we needed and confirmation of what we already knew. Stowers is local to Brandon and we perceive will give care that only a local business can. We now have peace of mind that our daughter will have the support she needs when the time comes. Very happy to cross pre planning off the list”
