The General Price List (GPL) is the keystone of the Funeral Rule. It contains identifying information, itemized prices for the various goods and services that we provide and sell, and other important disclosures. The GPL enables consumers to comparison shop and to purchase, on an itemized basis, only the goods and services they want. Please give us a call for pricing or you may request pricing information in person.
