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
“Gardner Funeral Home provided an experience that was compassionate, professional, and deeply respectful during one of the hardest moments for our family. From start to finish, everything was handled with care, grace, and dignity. I want to give special recognition to Brigitte, who did my aunt’s makeup for her service. She looked absolutely incredible! peaceful, beautiful, and truly herself. Brigitte’s work was not only skillful, but incredibly thoughtful. It brought comfort to our family to see my aunt presented with such care and attention to detail. In moments like these, the little things matter more than words can express, and Gardner Funeral Home got every one of them right. We are deeply grateful for the kindness, professionalism, and humanity shown to our family. Thank you for making a difficult day a little easier.”

“Where do I begin.. Gardner Funeral Home recently handled arrangements for my grandmother and couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Kristen was absolutely amazing and was there for my family every step of the way! We were all treated with compassion from everyone there as well. So many little things were done to make this an easier process, after losing such a wonderful person. If I could give you guys 100 stars I would! Thank you for everything!”
