Meet the Stone family! Caitlyn and Matt moved to Lago de Vita with their children Hadley, Camden and Charlotte four years ago.

“Greensburg is a great small-town environment to raise a family with lots to do,” Caitlyn says. “But, it’s just a short car ride from the excitement and events of the big city of Pittsburgh, or the mountain serenity of the Laurel Highlands. We are at the center of it all.”

Matt is a plant manager at his family’s concrete and builders’ supply business, Stone and Company Concrete. They service southwestern Pennsylvania, north-central West Virginia and the surrounding region. Stone and Co. Concrete was started by Matt’s great-grandfather and has served the community for the past 100 years.

“Our family business has been a part of western Pennsylvania for so long,” Caitlyn says.

Their three children attend Aquinas Academy in Greensburg. Hadley is ten and recently started fifth grade. She enjoys dancing at Seton Hill University Dance Academy and volunteers with the Girl Scouts. She is also a Stroll Laurel View contributor and writes the column “Hadley’s Nook.”

Eight-year-old Camden entered third grade this year and plays baseball with West Point Little League. The whole family enjoys watching baseball together, and the Stones are season ticket holders for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Charlotte, the youngest of the family, is four years old and started preschool this year.

The Stones enjoy traveling together and visit Ocean City, Maryland every year with their extended family. Their other favorite vacation spot is Del Mar, California. 

The family also loves animals and has four pets—two dogs named Clyde and Belle, a cat named Sprinkles, and a Russian tortoise named Sheldon.

“We travel a lot!” Caitlyn says. “We love to travel, caring for our four pets, spending time at our cabin fishing, hiking and riding ATVs, going to concerts, the theater and skiing.”

The Stone family is active and they bike, swim, and play basketball and baseball together. They also enjoy cooking dinner and baking as a family.

Caitlyn says their family enjoys Stroll because it helps create connections in the community.

“It's so fun to see your friends and neighbors or learn more about people who live close by,” she says. “Long gone are the days of knowing everyone in your town, so Stroll brings us all a little closer and provides some familiarity with those whose houses we drive by every day.”
