Tips:

To keep the cats out of your flower garden, scatter dog hair in the beds. It's free and won't harm Mother Nature or your plants. Bonnie Shivley

Graveside care: 

  • Respect the rules of the cemetery
  • Do not chalk tombstones - it's hard on the stone
  • Do not use bleach or shaving cream to clean a headstone - the chemicals are too strong
  • Use water and a soft cloth to remove dirt from a headstone
