This Monument is For Living

Our business is creating memorials for families and communities, and we’re proud to have helped build some of our nation’s greatest granite monuments.

For this project, which became her life mission after she became injured in combat, Pearsall has endeavored to capture veterans portraits in every state from which the Department of Defense recruits.

When she made her stop at our quarry and workshop in Barre, VT we did what we do best, we created a granite memorial to honor our staff members who served. Pearsall used it as a fitting podium for her subjects.
