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
“I like it here! I’ve only been twice so far, but it’s very accessible, a variety of trails. Lots of cool birds. I would definitely recommend :)”
— Sam Schmitz
“This place is huge. Walked the grounds here for a few hours and couldn't cover it all. It's sad to see some of the tombstones knocked over or destroyed. Interesting though to see some of them are in the woods away from prying eyes. Good place to go to reflect. Just think, the ground that you walk on while there, is full of history, if only the deceased could talk.”
— Cynthia Sbihi
“Stumbled onto this very large, very beautiful cemetery while searching for a place near the river to do some photography. Time constraints kept me from walking all the way down, but it's a scenic and lovely graveyard and I got way too many images again lol. Always use the buddy system. As with any secluded area it's Probably not a good place to visit at night.”
— Betsy Foster
