So sad to hear of your fathers passing. He was a lovely man. He will be missed by family and friends alike. I enjoyed the photo gallery. It brought up more long forgotten memories of the kids play at your house in Old Bridge. Charles we miss you already.

So sad to hear the news today, but so many wonderful memories of a very special time when the Montgomerys and Jacksons made up half our softball team in the 80s. It's been a long time and I can't remember too well if we won many games, but I definitely remember Big Bob's bat in the middle of our lineup and the fun we had playing together. Heaven's lineup just got a boost. God Bless the Montgomery family.

Bob,

You were a good friend for almost three decades. I will miss your kindness and generosity to give of yourself in a friendship that will be remembered and cherished. I'm saddened that our friendship could not have been of a longer duration, but feel blessed for the time we had.

Love, Sharon

Your dad was a great inspiration to many people as a coach and friend. As we grow older we come to appreciate the people who helped us grow up and mature.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I will always remember how he loved to laugh. We shared laughter mostly about Robin, Bob, Jeff, and Lily ( his dutiful yet troublemaker dog). He was a great role model for his children and grandchildren. Fond memories of Englishtown will be forever in my heart. Love, peace, and prayers to the Montgomery family.
