Mr. Stoneman is a Vermont attorney who concentrates his practice on wills, trusts and estates.  The holder of law degrees from Cambridge University (1949) and the University of Virginia (1957), he has written and lectured extensively on estate planning and related topics.  An inveterate cat fancier, his hobbies include Scrabble, stamp collecting and short story writing.
