The Case of the Mysteriously Vanishing Rock Piles

I covered the shameful desecration of Rock Hill Presbyterian last year, and a friend and I drove out to see how progress on the reconstruction was going.  It turns out the stones had been dumped on a couple of old concrete mobile home pads.  How do I know?

The stones are gone, except for some little fist-sized remnants lying on the concrete.  Where did the stones from the old church go?  There is no new construction at the winery up the hill.  I have a bad feeling that the lofty goal of rebuilding the church died, and the stones were sold off for fill.  What a sad coda for such an historic church.
