I'm thinking of Monta and her magnificent heart, keen interest and enthusiastic, giving nature. She graced all with her expansive nature. I met her when she was visiting Pokey Creek in Idaho. She loved us all up! I feel very fortunate to have had a wonderful continued relationship through letters for over 30yrs. My heart goes out to Rich and all the family and friends who will miss her dearly, because she loved so greatly. I also wish her wonderful travels on her spirit journey!Heaven is...

I'm so grateful to have known Monta. We volunteered at PeaceHealth on the same Thursday morning shift. She often shared memories of her life, which always fascinated me. She had a gift for storytelling. She was lovable and sweet to everyone. She is, and will continue to be, missed.

My deepest condolences to Monta's family. I worked with Monta for year's in the Treasurer's office and she was truly a one of a kind. Everyone loved her, customer's and co-workers. I will think of her often and use her as an example of what a human should be like...RIP

I worked with Monta at the Treasurer's office, she was such a kind person. Used to go to her farm on the Beard road with my kids when they were little so they could feed her pot belly pig. Such a sweet lady.
