Monty was one of the finest people I have ever met and he will be sorely missed. In addition to being an excellent real estate developer, he was as fine a gentleman as one could hope to meet. I will forever cherish our many conversations on matters related to politics, zoning and religion - in that order! My deepest sympathies to his family.

Very Sorry for your loss. It was an honor to know and work for Monty. He was a very caring person who would do anything for those he loved. The advice he gave me will never be forgotten.

I am extremely saddened by Monty's untimely passing. He was one of a select few people that I truly admired. His honesty, fairness and caring for others was unparalleled. Also, his intelligence combined with his optimism and determination enabled him to reach heights that only a few people can claim to have reached.
In the end, the world is a better place because of Monty's contributions and I am so proud to have known him. My deepest condolences to Jimmy, Chris and his grandchildren...

Hey Aloha Chris and Jimmie, I was sad to hear about the loss of your dad, still so young and strong. How much he accomplished in this lifetime is amazing. Monty kept us going thru thick and thin, even when no one else was building. He still always made time for a chat and a smile. There's no one bolder than Monty. I guess you guys will have to carry on,maybe God needed help on a big project and called in Monty. Hard to resist THAT call. Peace be with youguys and rest in peace, Monty.

In life there are not too many people that come along that you feel that special feeling that transends friendship. Monty was one of those people that cared more for others than himself and it has been my pleasure to call him my special friend.
