I’m so happy that Monty and his family and I re-connected in Jacksonville. We all lived in WPB, FL when we were young. Monty and his family all moved to Jacksonville in the 60’s. Monty was My Dad’s first cousin that he always kept in touch with.You will be missed so much. I will miss those talks and laughs we had on Thanksgiving. Rest easy . Love you.

It will be strange not seeing Monty riding around in the golf cart or diligently working around the house. We admired his strength and abilities. A true inspiration to us all. His smile and casual conversations will be remembered.
