Dear Joan and family. So sorry to hear about Monty. He was such a super guy and a real gentleman. We have many fond memories of Masonic outings with the two Birthday Boys who shared the same birthday. He will be missed as he was so involved with so many orginizations. We send you all our love and prayers. We are out of town until the 15th – will see you whe we return. Tom & Dian

Joan strangely I was thinking of Monty just a month ago. I often wonder how my former patients are doing. I am sorry that I didn’t phone then.
My contacts with Monty were intermittent, but go back a long way – to a poker group when the world was much younger. He was a likable gentle soul, a pleasure to know. He will be missed.
Please accept my condolences. Doctor Bob.
