What a tragic and sudden loss of an inspirational human being. Monika made a difference in the lives of so many people. She is irreplaceable but will be remembered.


Book Club and lunch friend, Brenda

You have my deepest sympathy. May God give you peace and strength to keep you going during your time of sorrow.

I knew Monika from hiking with her as part of a Friday Women 's hiking group in Missoula.
I always enjoyed the times she was able to join us. Her knowledge and joy of life will be missed. May loving memories help bring you peace.

Our sympathy and special prayers for Monika and all her friends and family.

Impossible to accept that our much-treasured companion of a long shared history has gone from our lives.
The unthinkable has happened and we're sorrier than any words can say.

You are all in our loving thoughts. We are so sorry and saddened by your loss. Monika will be missed.
