Condolences to Beth and family so sorry
Loved this sweet lady so much! She always was smiling and I loved visiting with her each year it was tax time. She talked of each of you with great love and joy! I feel very blessed to have known her! So sorry for your loss - May God be with you!
Tony, Bryan, and Beth-
I wanted to let you all know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Monta Jean was truly one of the great West Texas women! I was so fortunate to receive a cookbook from her where she noted family recipes with her precious little notes. They all had a quick wit which I love to read. I still use it today and think of her every time I open it up. She always had a smile on her face when greeting someone and a warm hug. May you all know what a blessing she was to all that knew her.

Please accept my condolences for your loss. Monta Jean and I met at WT and were sorority sisters in Alpha Delta Pi. Laurie Smith Green, Monta Jean and I frequently had lots of fun while there. Monta Jean was one of the first to offer her support after my dad passed. I treasure memories of those days.
