We were sorry to learn that Dante had gone. We still remember well what good neighbours Dante and Elvira were so many years ago when we all lived on South Kingslea Drive. Marcia and Richard Bird

We would like to express our most sincere condolence on the passing of Mr. Dante Matthew DeMonte, and Grandfather. It was the utmost blessing to have been a part of Dan's life. I have shared beautiful memories that I will cherish always and he will always be in our heart. I think of him in prayer as he was a very special person to us and he will be sadly missed and kindly remembered. Grandchildren: Chantal Elizabeth DeMonte, and Christopher Anthony DeMonte.

Dear De Monte family,
I was sad to hear about the loss of your mom in 2000, and now with the passing of your dad, it seems to mark the end of a Baby Point era. Your dad was a familial and social anchor on the Point, and is so much a part of everything I associate with the neighbourhood and growing up in it. In the obit, I loved the reference to the Baby Point games (the roast pig!) and the De Monte family piling in and out of the old Mustang. It reminds me so much of a life that, at times, seems to have been lived on another planet. Enough abstract reminiscing. Suffice to say that your dad -- like your mom -- will be missed.
Take care,
Tad Brown

I am very sorry of Dante's passing. To his extended family, please accept my deepest sympathy, Even while you mourn his loss, as the close family that you are, you will remember Dante for the love and caring he brought to all of you. And please add myself to the very long list of his friends from days past, including, in my case, time spent drinking espresso at various cafes on St. Clair Avenue West, where he shared his stories of people and politics and his experiences in what was a very exciting and full life. Even at this moment, one of his stories comes to mind...Dante was then an MPP and was on a visit to Italy, where he was to be a guest of honour at a very large formal dinner. But, prior to that dinner, Dante was at a winery, where the owner of the vinyeard was proudly taking him on a tour -- which included a visit to a cellar where the best wines were stored. Naturally, they had to taste the wines...and then they tasted some more. Apparently, the wines were excellent. However, the tasting went on for so long that the dinner guests were kept waiting...for quite some time (was it hours? I can't recall). In the end, Dante arrived, was greeted as the guest of honour and the dinner proceeded with great fanfare. Looking back, I recall Dante as much more than a succesful lawyer and politician. I was more impressed with him for the loving family man he was, that he was a wonderful human being and a great storyteller who delighted in sharing a cup of coffee or a glass of wine....He will be missed, and I regret that I cannot attend his funeral service....Please accept my condolences, and know that Dante will be in my thoughts and prayers...
