Monte was my cousin. We got to spend Thanksgiving together with our families in 1963! His mother and my dad (Clyde Southard) were brother and sister. I am so glad he turned his life over to the Lord. He suffered so much as a young boy. I loved him so much. Now I will have to wait to get to heaven to see him again. I will keep his family in my prayers! God bless you all.

Bro. Watts will be missed becasue there are very few like him. He was very rare. His faithfulness, humble spirit, and being very personal with all he met made him very special. A man who has given so much for the Lord should be honored. His wife and children need to know what their husband and father meant to us. We are so honored to have had a man like Monte Watts in our lives. May his testimony of faith and humility live on in each of us.
