Eddie "Gilly" Gilbert, Stone Mason
FORMER NHL HOCKEY PLAYER

Gilly is one of those hardy souls who left the NHL hockey rink to master one of the earliest trades known to civilization — stone masonry.

A native of Hamilton, Ontario, he brings more than 25 years of experience to his craft. He restores and builds all types of exterior stone features, interior walls and fireplaces, and creates visual art in stone.

To Gilly, each project is a unique challenge. From the vast stone wall and porch at Burpee's Fordhook Farm to the repointing of a small springhouse, he enjoys working with stone in all its forms.

Gilly is a member of The Stone Foundation.
