GENERAL PRICE LIST

These prices are effective as of October 1st, 2022 and are subject to change.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the NYS Dept. of Health both require that certain disclosures be made by Funeral Providers on the General Price List. Although these disclosures are similar, they are not exactly the same. The General Price List contains both sets of the required disclosures. The disclosures required by the FTC, when different from those required by the Dept. of Health, are preceded by the letters "FTC".

The goods and services shown below are those we can provide our customers. You may choose only those items you desire. However, any funeral arrangement you select will include a charge for our services. If legal requirements mean you must buy any item you did not specifically ask for, we will explain the reason in writing on the statement we provide describing the funeral services and merchandise you selected. This list may not include certain items you select, such as cemetery charges, crematory services, flowers and newspaper notices. The estimated or final prices for those items will be shown on the itemized statement describing the funeral services and merchandise you selected. We charge you for our services in buying certain items.

If you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a viewing or an open casket funeral, embalming may be required by the funeral firm.

(FTC) "Except in certain cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a funeral with a viewing. If you do not want embalming, you usually have the right to choose an arrangement which does not require you to pay for it, such as direct cremation or immediate burial."
