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
“While I do not wish for anyone to have to go through the planning process that comes after a loved one has passed, I will always, without question, recommend Island Funeral Home should that time ever come. Valerie was exceptional. She was kind, caring, respectful and beyond helpful after my mom passed away unexpectedly in an accident. I was lost. Valerie made the most difficult time in my life and my family’s lives as bearable as possible. I cannot thank Valerie and the rest of the Island Funeral Home team enough for treating my mom with such respect and for being such an exceptional support system. Thank you from the entire Warth family. We appreciate you beyond words.”
— Rebecca Warth
“I can’t say enough good things about Lawrence and the rest of the staff. From the moment we called to the moment we left after the service, they made such a naturally difficult process very easy and manageable for our family. Incredibly kind and always going well above and beyond for our family, and we cannot thank them enough for that. I can’t recommend them enough to take care of you during a time of grief and sadness for your family. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Simply wonderful.”
— Aaron Murray
“Saying a final goodbye to our loved ones is an experience we all share at some point in our lives. Saying goodbye to a wife of 44 years has been the most difficult experience I have ever had to go through, and I suspect it will remain that way. My experience at The Island Funeral Home and Crematory was excellent. In particular, Valerie was kind, compassionate and understanding especially at moments of sudden grief that would come over me. I got to meet the rest of the staff on the day of the Celebration of Life for my wife Gail. Everything went so smoothly, when all I could do was keep my composure. The cost was very reasonable, the service was excellent and the personal attention and guidance was so important to bring lasting memories of Gail to everyone who attended.”
