I had no idea Hyrum’s massive obelisk in SLC was made from Vermont stone. It’s darker than the local stone you see in the temple, but I never really thought about it. (I guess you could say I took it for granite.)
Must have cost a bundle to ship it this far west.
I guess people can name drop right to the end. I’ve seen some of this head stones, very nice granite. The Dallas Temple was faced in Tennessee granite but was very porous and showed the cement glue (black) used to hold it. It took several apps of some chemicals to hide the glue. It seems most cemeteries only allow brass plaques now days. Fancy head stones may be a thing of the pass, lost art.
Some people will stop at nothing to market their products. Using a prophet’s name to sell decorative items to the Saints – as if that would happen on social media nowadays…
