1. A kit for securing stone veneer panels to a structure, the kit comprising: at least one stone veneer panel, the panel including an upper surface and a lower surface, a front surface and a rear surface, a flange extending outwardly from a portion of the upper and lower surfaces of the panel and a first and second side surfaces for abutment with a horizontally adjacent panel;a plurality of brackets for securing the at least one stone panel to the structure, the brackets secured to the structure through a bracket center mount, the brackets further comprising two lateral walls and two longitudinal walls, each wall having an interior and an exterior surfaces and an upper and lower edges, at least one upper wing wall extending outwardly from the upper edge of at least one of the lateral walls and at least one lower wing wall extending outwardly from the exterior surface of at least one lateral wall and disposed above the lower edge, the upper and lower wing walls forming a channel for receipt of the flange of the panel; anda filler panel to fill a gap between vertically adjacent panels, wherein the bracket is secured to the structure through the center mount and the filler panel is positioned between the vertically adjacent veneer panels. 2. The kit of claim 1, wherein the front face of the stone veneer panel provides an appearance of a realistic stone wall. 3. The kit of claim 1, wherein an adhesive is used to secure the filler panel to the bracket upper wing wall and to the flange of the stone panel. 4. The kit of claim 3, wherein the upper wing wall includes at least one through hole to facilitate the adhesion of the filler panel to the upper wing wall. 5. The kit of claim 1, wherein the bracket is secured to the structure with a retaining member passing through the center mount. 6. The kit of claim 5, wherein the retaining member is a hexagonal head cap screw. 7. The kit of claim 1, wherein the filler panel includes a front face and a rear face. 8. The kit of claim 1, wherein the filler panel front face comprises a natural stone appearance. 9. The kit of claim 1, wherein the center mount includes a circular lug through which a retaining member is secured to the structure. 10. The kit of claim 1, wherein when the bracket is secured to the structure a separation distance exists between the lower edge of the bracket which is in contact with the structure and the at least one lower wing wall, the separation distance facilitating the movement of air between the rear surface of the installed stone veneer panel and the structure thereby promoting removal of moisture from the structure. 11. The kit of claim 1, wherein the center mount is secured to at least one lateral reinforcing web and the lateral reinforcing web is secured to at least one longitudinal reinforcing web wherein the longitudinal reinforcing web is connected to the interior surface of at least one lateral wall. 12. The kit of claim 11, wherein the upper edge of the at least one longitudinal reinforcing web is recessed below the upper edge of the at least one lateral wall for receiving, without interference, the center rib of the filler panel. 13. The kit of claim 11, wherein the center mount is recessed below the upper edge of the at least one lateral wall to prevent interference with the center rib of the filler panel. 14. The kit of claim 1, wherein the bracket is comprised primarily of engineered plastic. 15. The kit of claim 1, wherein the filler panel further comprises oppositely disposed upper and lower surfaces extending rearwardly to the back face and substantially perpendicular to the front face. 16. The kit of claim 15, wherein the upper and lower surfaces further comprise a forward edge proximate the front face and a rear edge proximate the back face. 17. The kit of claim 16, wherein the upper surface of the filler panel further comprises an upwardly slanted surface on a portion of the upper surface proximate the rear edge. 18. The kit of claim 16, wherein the lower surface of the filler panel further comprises a downwardly slanted surface on a portion of the lower surface proximate the rear edge. 19. The kit of claim 1, wherein a portion of the upper surface of the at least one stone veneer panel is upwardly slanted at an angle in the range of from 20 to 50 degrees from the upper surface. 20. The kit of claim 1, wherein a portion of the lower surface of the at least one stone veneer panel is downwardly slanted at an angle in the range of from 20 to 50 degrees from the lower surface. 21. The kit of claim 20, wherein when installed onto the structure the upwardly slanted surface on the upper surface of the filler panel is disposed behind and engages with the upwardly slanted surface of an adjacently installed stone veneer panel preventing outward extraction of the filler panel from the adjacently secured veneer panels. 22. The kit of claim 21, wherein when installed onto the structure the downwardly slanted surface on the lower surface of the filler panel is disposed behind and engages with the downwardly slanted surface of the adjacently installed stone veneer panel preventing outward extraction of the filler panel from the adjacently secured veneer panels. 23. The kit of claim 1, wherein the plurality of brackets for securing the at least one stone panel to the structure includes a starter bracket for installing a lowermost course of paneling, the starter bracket further comprising oppositely disposed first and second mounting brackets separated by a spacer bar, the first and second mounting brackets further comprising upwardly extending wing walls forming a gap for receiving the lower flange of a stone veneer panel and a step extending upwardly and outwardly from a base of the bracket for supporting a lower surface of the filler panel and a sloped region adjacent the step for receiving a canted back surface of the filler panel.
