I lost my BEST FRIEND today:

My dearest friend that I traveled the world with left me today. We marched through life’s adventures hand in hand, sharing so many, many places and things from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic, most of the states, Canada, Mexico, Central America, Caribbean, England, France, and Scotland. All places we smiled, laughed, shared times, art, and culture. Each place was not left without fond memories that will forever be remembered in my heart. My life was richer with you in it and it resonates with deep emotion as a result. My Best friend can never be replaced.

 

I lost my PARTNER today:

My Partner and I have engaged in every type of business my mind could dream up. Currently-Asbestos Abatement, Entertainment, Watercraft rentals, Pocket Containment Invention, Rental Property investor. We have owned and operated an International business, Bar & Restaurant, Tow-away jetski rentals, Karaoke shows and rentals, Wedding planning, Mobile Notary, Internet Services, Embroidery, Mobile mechanic, etc. She was the heart of most and the support team for all. No one I have met has worked with such Fervor.

 

I lost my LOVE today:

I had the honor and privilege of sharing depth of love that most would not understand. From the minute I met her, my heart has filled with so much love both giving and receiving. The hole in my heart will forever be that, and I will never attempt to fill it, because, it can’t, it is too wide and too deep. I will forever cherish my true love shared with her.

 

I lost my WIFE today:

Kim and I were lawfully wed on 8-2-03, to have and to hold until that day forward, for better and for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, I loved and cherished her from that day forward until today we did part. No one could have more, maybe equal, but no more love than I.

 

I lost the BATTLE today:

Kimberly Susan Montano 6-14-61 to 2-1-15 was the strongest person I have known. From diagnosis to death, we tried everything possible, respecting the fight throughout, we engaged the battle with commitment to win, solemnly without success. Losing is not something either of us knew well, but now we understand together what the tallest toll is, the loss of my dearest Kimber.

 

I lost my EVERYTHING GIRL today:

There was little that Kimberly could not do. She was accomplished in so many things it would be too difficult to list them all. Those that knew her know what I mean. She had the God given ability to figure out or problem solve like no other. If she didn’t know how to do something there was never quit, she would tirelessly pursue the knowledge with dogged ambition.

 

The loss of Kimberly will not just be felt today but through all time known to me and our family. The ripples of loss will forever be constant. This loss today didn’t just weaken our family it weakened the community we live in. She will forever be remembered by me as my Best friend, my Partner, my Love, and my cherished wife. My days will not pass without reflections of joy, love, honor, respect, and continued sadness. KIMBER my love, hold onto my heart until I see you in the presence of God. Hold my place, my dear Kimberly Susan Montano, I will see you again soon.

 

I would like to thank Jill her mother, Mindy our daughter, Vicki her dearest friend, Dino, Sitha, Vicky B, Marylou, Steve and Gale, Brian, Trish, all of my office staff and all the friends that helped me through this indescribably difficult time. Mostly I want to thank GOD for sharing Kimberly with all of us, she was the best parts of all of us. Take care of her GOD with all your love and light. Kimberly we will rejoice when I join you there.
