**Relatives stand with the
newly repositioned
Crimean War Stone
**with the work done, hopefully
this stone will stay preserved
for many years to come.
Four years later it is still in
beautiful shape standing

**Paul & Bruce are placing
a sealing compound on the base
which will keep moisture from seeping
in between the base & headstone, which
can freeze in cold weather & cause some
serious sliding problems
**preventative step taken, saves many hours
of repositioning againSep 30, 2010

**stone in position, being lifted
**a very slow process
**No Room for Mistakes Now
as the last thing they'd want, would be
