Isaac "Monte" Venditelli, 26, passed away on Tuesday, November 11, 2025. Isaac was born on March 21,1999 to George and Shannon Venditelli in Raleigh, NC. Isaac is survived by his parents, siblings Jordan and Isabel, and husband Jonathan Spencer. He was preceded in death by his sister, Rebekah.
To know Isaac is to have known authenticity in its truest form. His cheeky chuckle, contagious laugh and Mrs. Doubtfire shriek when jump scared. Him getting creative in the kitchen with his “secret ingredient” that was always vanilla. The way he fiercely loved people and showed up in ways that left lasting impacts, despite the passing of time. He lived loudly but loved even louder.
Monte will be missed more than words can capture, but his life will forever serve as a beautiful example of resilience, adventurous spirit, strength and the power of family – biological and chosen.
The funeral is by invitation only. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the LGBT Center of Raleigh.
