When you entrust the creation of your memorial to the Cote family, you can rest assured that you have placed this most important work in the hands of highly skilled artisans who have been crafting beautiful and lasting tributes in stone for families in the community for more than 30 years.

However, our family’s heritage of working in stone goes much deeper…as deep as the natural beauty of the stone itself.

The Cote family’s long tradition in the granite business began more than a century ago, with Luger Camire, a master stonecutter in Barre, Vermont, the granite center of New England. His skill in revealing the hidden beauty in stone has set the standard for subsequent generations of Cote children and associates.

It was only natural that his daughter, Mariette, who attended the Barre School of Monument Drafting and Design, and son-in-law, Jean Cote, a talented stoneworker in Barre, would continue to seek new challenges for the business. In 1979, the family established Hudson Monuments in Hudson, New Hampshire.

Their son, David, following in his father's footsteps, joined the business at an early age. Today, after years of hands-on experience, David is helping to bring new ideas and technology to the company, while maintaining the tradition of quality and service established by his father and grandfather.

The Cote family is proud of the position of trust and respect it has earned in the community, and honored to be selected time and again to help families and friends create beautiful, lasting tributes to their loved ones.

We at Hudson Monuments are committed to the legacy of caring and tradition of trust, which have been the hallmark of our family and our associates for more than a century.
