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.

What Families Say
“H.D. Pope Funeral Home provided exceptional care and professionalism during my mother’s funeral services. From start to finish, they handled every detail with dignity, compassion, and respect during an incredibly difficult time for our family. What speaks volumes is that this was not our first experience with them. H.D. Pope Funeral Home also handled the funeral services for my son and my father, and each time they demonstrated the same level of excellence, empathy, and professionalism. They consistently made an overwhelming process feel manageable, never rushed us, and treated our loved ones with the utmost honor. Their staff is attentive, organized, and genuinely caring. You can trust that your family will be supported and your loved one will be laid to rest with grace and respect. I am deeply grateful for their service and highly recommend H.D. Pope Funeral Home to anyone in need of compassionate and professional funeral care.”

“After being married for 36 yrs., 8 months, & 5 days to the love of my life, Theadford Brinkley, Jr. (GOD'S Apostle), at the appointed time of GOD on September 5, 2025, he received his "Promotion To Heaven." I don't feel that I have the right words to express how Mr. H.D. Pope & Staff of H.D. Pope Funeral Home helped me to walk through, step by step, what I needed to do; how they helped me and my family get through this very painful and difficult time in preparing to lay my husband's body to rest. Yet, I will try to express my heartfelt gratitude with the words I have. Not only did Mr. Pope & Staff do an EXCELLENT job in preparing my husband's body where he really looked like himself, but they also carried out my desires for the entire "Promotion To Heaven" Celebration. Mr. Pope, Tammie Atkinson & Staff were not only professional, but they also showed so much compassion and concern for me and my family throughout this time of unexplainable, heartbreaking and emotional pain. With the understanding of our brokenness, this deep hurt and pain, the way they handled my husband's body, the way they handled me and my family with great respect and honor, the way they handled EVERYTHING, from the beginning to the end.. Even checking in on me and my family days after the burial. They made me feel secure and safe during my vulnerability, that they had me, while I focused on my broken heart and other things I had to give attention to. I am so thankful to GOD, to Mr. Pope & Staff for being there for me and my family during this time of our life. I don't believe ANY ONE ELSE could have done for me & my family what Mr. H.D. Pope, His Staff and H.D.Pope Funeral Home did. Though I strongly & tearfully miss my husband, their professionalism and humanity of kindness, compassion, and concern certainly helps to make this process for me easier. I highly recommend Mr. H. D. Pope & Pope's Funeral Home Services to anyone and everyone who finds themselves walking through the season of life when a love one is called into eternity. Respectfully, -Apostle Ernestine Brinkley”
