My deepest sympathies for you Nick. If you ever need anything please let me know.
Please accept my sincere condolences. Monty and I met in kindergarten and reconnected several years ago. We talked often and supported each other in this thing called life. Nick, please feel free to reach out anytime.
Monty was a daily fixture in our lives. He shared a birthday with my son, Noah, who is battling Noonan’s syndrome. Monty was a very positive and beautiful soul. He always looked for the best in every situation and held strong to his beliefs. He checked on us daily and we saw him almost every day of the week for the past 3 and 1/2 years. I have texted him multiple times and stopped and erased them, remembering he’s no longer with us. I will never know another human so selfless and so pure and so honest. I strive to be like him everyday. He is missed beyond belief in our lives and I hope to see him again when it’s my turn to go. Nick, please know you’re all I have left of your father and I am here for you anytime.
Nick – I was so sorry to hear about Monty. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Nick I am so sorry about your dad. I know he loved you very much. I went to high school with your dad and reconnected about two years ago although I hadn’t talked to him in a while because he said he was going through some things. We lived next door to each other in Norfolk. VA. I know I will miss knowing he was a text away.
