Obituary for Montgomery


Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Sunday February 11, 2001

Tom Montgomery, 43, a lifelong resident of New Mexico, died Tuesday, February 6, 2001 at Presbyterian Hospital. Tom was preceded in death by his father, Harry T. Montgomery. He is survived by his mother, Bonnie P. Montgomery; and sister, Phyllis R. Montgomery. Tom was born February 28, 1957 in Albuquerque. He attended Highland High, Albuquerque High and Albuquerque Technical Vocational Institute. Tom had been employed in insurance areas related to workers' compensation. His affection for his pets was unlimited. Tom had a lifelong fascination with southwest history and art. He enjoyed sports, especially basketball all his life, both playing and watching. Above all, Tom loved the New Mexico outdoors. Camping, hiking, fishing or just walking through the desert, it renewed his spirit. Tom will be missed so very much by his family, his dog, Dilly-bird, his cat, Daisy, and by his many wonderful friends. We wish to thank Chuck, Ronnie, Pete R., Pete V., David and Carmen for their loyalty and love for Tom. The family requests no flowers, contributions may be made to the New Mexico Wilderness Alliance, 202 Central Ave. SE, 87102 or the charity of your choice. Private services will take place. French Mortuary, 1111 University Blvd. NE.
