Dear Kerri & Carolyn,
I was very sorry to read about Monte. I have many fond memories of coaching and swimming in AK during the late 70's and 80's. Besides being a good swimmer I always felt Monte brought a lot of enthusiasm and class to the sport. I'm very sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Mike Fallon (former coach of Elm. Dolph. and Ass't coach at Bartlett H.S.)

Carolyn: Our prayers go out to you and your family. I will truly miss hearing from him at Christmas with his extra special notes to us along with a special picture you would always send of the wonderful places you two had been. Monte truly was the best "boss" to work with in Utilities and I will really miss him.

Carolyn,
We were deeply saddened to learn of Monty's passing. He was a true gentleman. For several years I represented the Anchorage Natural Gas Company (later Enstar). At that time Monty was the utilities expert for the Department of Transportation. He was the "go to guy" for any utilities or right of way questions. Even if the state was not involved he would gladly offer his sage advise. Our condolences to you and the rest of the family.
