We are saddened by the loss of our friend and colleague, Guy Edson of Granite Creations. Guy passed away unexpectedly due to an aneurysm on Friday, Feb. 3, 2017.
After high school, Guy began working for his family's business, Northeast Granite and Granite Creations, in Montpelier, VT and would later become the proud owner. He had a huge and compassionate heart. His enthusiasm was infectious. He reached out to everyone and anyone that he could help. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends. Guy is survived by his wife, Patricia Degen Edson, and their three children: Sarah Edson Rowan and her husband, D. Walker Rowan, and their two children, Noah and Eleanor Rowan; his son and business partner, Christopher Edson; and his little girl "Livy," Olivia Edson. We send our condolences to Patty and his family. He will be missed.
