My brother-in-law’s memorial service on May 16, 2026 will bring our family together in a time of deep loss. Stone’s impact on my life and our family is immeasurable. He loved the woods, Janet, his four children (Fiona, Christian, Joe & Steve), his dogs, antiquities, thinking, reading, building, cooking, and so many peaceful things. In his last days, he blessed me in ways I cannot count, and it’s important to me to give back to him and Janet however I can.

The funds raised will help cover my travel expenses from New Mexico to New Hampshire so I can be present with my family, and will also go toward painting a portrait of Stone in oils for my sister’s home. Creating this artwork is my way of honoring his memory and bringing comfort and connection to those he loved most. Any small donation to make this journey and memorial artwork possible would mean the world to me.

Thank you for your support and friendship during this time. Your kindness will help me be there for my family and create something lasting in Stone’s memory. I am deeply grateful for any help you can offer.
