Thanks again Mike. I will check out that site. I am not at all involved in the install. I took a liking to the person running this organization. His mother died of breast cancer 4 years ago and he started a foundation in her memory. We were asked about the 11X13 and after getting to know him and his project better, thought we might be able to help a little more. I find great inspiration in seeing someone turn something so tragic into something so positive.
I am going to contact the NorthLake company and see what I can find out about their stone. I will probably need to chat with you further if we decide to cut this stuff ourselves, of maybe I will contact your fabricator. I spoke with a stone mason a few weeks ago that I met purely by chance, he was supposed to contact me.. Says he works for a big architectural firm in Chicago and they often throw away huge pieces of absolute black granite, up to 4" thick. He says he will cut and polish it, so I was really interested in what he had to say. He took my card but didn't have one of his own, and of course I have not heard back from him. Hopefully that will work out too.
