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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“This a place of peace and harmony. You get that feeling from here that your loved one is at Peace 🕊️ They are so helpful and did a fabulous job with our family of Apples that lay here to rest! The man can't remember his name. But a very great young man, willing to help and knows exactly what he is doing and he knows where your family is and who they are. I appreciate that he laid my Aunty to rest, by her Mom 40 years later and he got my aunt by her Mom (my Grandmother). So I so recommend this beautiful place to you, because they care and that takes that much more off of the family! Many blessings and much appreciated! 🙏”

“Cemetery on the south end of rapid. All stones here are flat markers, and there are two large columbarium’s. Agree with other reviews that some graves are overgrown with grass, sinking into the ground, or damaged that could use some repair. It was disappointing to see .. Burial directory on site lists plot locations between the years of 1935 - 2025.”

“My sons headstone has sank so far the vase for flowers is gone and several others around his headstone are in bad shape too is this not part of running a cemetary”
