I give my highest marks and my best recommendation to Precious Stones Monument Restoration and, in particular, to Susan Orifici. The company's restoration of the Antelope Island Army Ranger Memorial Monument in the Fall of 2022 was nothing less than masterful. After 30 years of exposure to the environment of the Great Salt Lake, the monument was in a deplorable condition. Inscriptions and engravings were, in some cases, illegible and indistinguishable.

They were watermarked almost to the point of being unreadable. I got the name of Precious Stones Monuments & Restoration from the sexton. Susan was very responsive and helpful. She went to look at the stones and got back to me with a plan to make them look much better. She explained the process and her crew was able to do the work the following week. The two headstones look like new. They are really beautiful. I am so pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Susan and her company if you are looking to refurbish any headstones in...
