To the Family: We would like to express sincere condolences on the loss of Monty. Our hearts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Nick and Barb Eugelmi ~ Nick and Barb Eugelmi


It was with sincere sorrow we heard of Monty's passing. Monty's mom was my father's sister and their family, Uncle Pete, Aunt Trudy, Monty and his sister Lois, all were a large part of my youth growing up. Monty's musical talent was extraordinary and his sense of humor is something I will never forget. Time and change separated us during adulthood but upon meeting again, it was like we were transported back to childhood. I will cherish his memory and be grateful for having him in my life. Our condolences to his wife and extended family. ~ Joyce and Adrian Papirnik


Helen: So sorry to read of Monty's passing. Have wonderful memories of you at Hinges & Twinges and of attending your wedding. Our sincerest sympathy to you and your family. Bev and Alan ~ Bev Hill


Neither Monty or I had a brother, growing up. We cousins [Monty's dad Pete and my mom Ann were brother and sister] got together most summers, in Regina or in Sioux Lookout. We had great amounts of fun ~ perogie-eating contests, exploring, going for car rides with Uncle Mike, play of all kinds. I miss you, cousin Monty. Rest easy. To Lois and Helen and your families, my thoughts are with you. Sorry for our loss. Be well. Practice kindness. See you on Facebook... ~ Myron Hawrylak
