My sincere and heartfelt condolences go out to the Montgomery family. Mr. Montgomery was my high school math teacher at Ross in the late 60's. He was tough but very fair if you listened in class and studied hard. He didn't smile too much, but you knew he cared because he always took the time to help and answer questions. I know he touched many former students and many of my classmates in a very positive manner. May you rest in peace, Mr. Montgomery and God Bless.

Mr. Montgomery was the senior class advisor for the Ross High School class of 1956. Have wonderful memories of when he and Mrs. Montgomery accompanied our class to Washington D.C. and New York City. My sympathy to his family.
