Heather took me in her red Jeep to Green Mount Cemetery in Montpelier.
- Role: turning point
- In the article: Over a Veterans Day long weekend Heather takes the author to her friend Tiki’s grave under a hydrangea. She shows the pink granite footstone with Tiki’s name, a mushroom and a heart, which she carved with a portable Dremel saw shortly before Tiki died in August 2022.
- Why it matters: It is the emotional centre of the profile: a carver’s personal act of memorial, outside Barre itself.
