My condolences to Monte's family. I was his office nurse for a couple of years in Phoenix in the 80's and also grew up in his home town of Grant. I stayed with the kids when the Nowaks went out of town on occassion, so have some fond memories of them as well. Monte was a great guy, I last saw him in Grant, NE when we had lunch together a few years ago. Am sure him will be missed by many friends and loved ones.

Monte and his family lived across the street from my family, Ray Makinster's, in my home town of Grant,NE. He was such a great kid, always so happy and so smart. I know he must have been a great Doctor too.

Monte was responsible in large part to the sucess of my otology/neurotology practice. His advice early on regarding the business aspects of a medical practice were extremely helpful.
I send my condolences to his family.
