Mr. Monte and his boys
We met Mr. Monte about 9 years ago as neighbors and became great friends. He loved my kids like his own from the first day. We were so fortunate to know him and we miss him terribly. Thank you Monte and Bobbye for allowing us to become part of your family. We love you both so much!
Love,
Josiah, Jessica, Harrison, and your special buddy Franklin

I met Monte when he began tending bar at Prospectors Village in the early 70s where I worked as a cocktail waitress. I became close friends with him and Bobbye, a friendship that I treasure to this day. I won't say 'goodbye,' we'll all meet again.

Monte and I played a lot of golf together over many years. Monte was a friends, friend. If you needed something any time night or day Monte was right there for you without a thought or hesitation. My wife and I traveled several times together and Bobbie and Monte. They where a pleasure to be with. Monte was a proud Marine. The old slogan once a Marine always Marine. He was a true patriot. He will be surely missed by many friends and family. God bless his sole and God speed to heaven.

I knew him for many many years, we always laughed when he worked at builder supply about numerous things. He had a great sense of humor. He will be missed dearly.

Monte was a great friend to me. He used to drive my truck to Sacramento and Fresno. We became good friends on our long trips to Fresno and back from my store in Oroville. I will miss him greatly. I pray he has found peace and eternal love in heaven.
