What we hold for this home

We hold no price from this funeral home, so there is no figure on this page. We will not estimate one.

We looked at this funeral home's own website on the day we checked and found no posted price list.

Homes aren't required to post prices online, so this isn't a complaint about this home. It only means the list is not on the website, and you will have to ask for it.

What each column means

Direct cremation
No viewing and no ceremony. The transfer into the funeral home's care, the cremation itself, and the filings.
Cremation with a service
A viewing or a ceremony first, then cremation.
Immediate burial
Burial with no viewing and no ceremony beforehand.
Burial with a graveside service
The ceremony is at the graveside, with none at the funeral home beforehand.
Traditional funeral
A viewing, a ceremony, then burial.

A filled dot marks the least expensive figure in that column among the homes on this table.

A cell reading "not posted" means that home's own price list carries no figure for that service. We never estimate one.

Every figure is that home's own posted price with its county's permit fee and one certified copy of the death certificate added, wherever both are on file, rounded once. Open a home to change the county or the number of copies.

Distances are measured from the center of one town to the center of the other, because that is as closely as we can place a home whose own price list we do not hold.

Federal law already gives you this home’s printed price list when you ask in person, and its prices over the phone: what the Funeral Rule gives you, and how to use it.

What you can do right now

  • Call and say you are comparing prices and would like the general price list. Ask them to email it or mail it.
  • If they will not send it, ask what their charge is for the exact thing you are considering, and write down what they say.
  • Call two or three homes before you decide anything. In most towns the same service differs by thousands of dollars, and the least expensive home is often not the one you have heard of.
  • Nothing has to be decided today. A home that pushes you to sign now is telling you something about itself.

Where this page comes from

This page reports one thing only: what our own collection found when it looked, and when it looked. It is not a rating and it is not a review. Price is not quality, and the absence of a posted price says nothing about the care a family would get here.

If you work at this funeral home and your price list is posted somewhere we missed, tell us and we will read it and put your prices here.
