1. The Cemetery Committee of the congregation will assist families in securing lots and will record this data in the cemetery records.

2. The congregation will maintain a cemetery fund for the purpose of maintenance and care of the cemetery and encourages families and friends to donate to this fund.

3. In order to assist in maintaining the beauty of the cemetery, no interment shall be made without the use of a concrete or steel or copper vault.

4. No trees or shrubs shall be planted without consent of the Cemetery Committee. Any flowers that are planted should be planted only next to head stones. Glass containers or cans are prohibited on graves. No copings will be permitted around the graves. Any wreaths or flowers will be removed upon deterioration or when, in the judgment of the caretaker, they have served their purpose.

5. No permanent stone or structure shall be placed in the cemetery without consulting with a Cemetery Committee member as to location.

6. The congregation shall not be held responsible for the execution of any order given by telephone or for any error occurring from the lack of receipt of precise and proper written instructions pertaining to the funeral service or interment. Reasonable precaution will be taken to protect lot owners and the property of lot owners within the cemetery from loss or damage, but the congregation distinctly disclaims all responsibility for loss or damage from causes beyond its reasonable control whether the damage be direct or indirect. The congregation shall incur no liability whatsoever except for its willful acts or malfeasance.

7. These rules and regulations may be changed or modified at any time by the congregation without notice to the lot owners. (Adopted by the Scarville Evangelical Lutheran Church, September 17, 1972, and recorded at Winnebago County Court House, Forest City, Iowa.)
