Obituary for David Walker Montgomery
Montgomery, David Walker (Monty)
David passed peacefully at HHCC with his family by his side April 5. 2023 at the age of 73.
Beloved husband of Kim Montgomery, dear brother of Fred (2016) (Barb), Bob (Betty) and Julie (Brian).
Cherished uncle of Greg, Laurie (2004), Jim, Brian, Melissa, Matthew, Michael, Alana and Noah. Remembered by his brother-in-law Rob Harding. David was truly one of a kind and will be sadly missed by all family and friends.
David had a unique sense of humour- never short of one liners, always involved in any shenanigans to be found including the occasional ‘borrowing’ of cars from the Curling Club in his younger days. David started Montgomery Dry Cleaners at the age of 19 and after selling the business, started his career in the automotive sales business working at many dealerships around Orangeville. While working at Highland Chrysler, David met his future wife Kim where they fell in love. A few short years later, they joined their lives together in marriage at the Montgomery family farm in 1988.
David enjoyed his many cars, hot rods and classic cars. He and Kim cruised around Georgian Bay for many years, finding their happy spot together- an island in Pointe au Baril where for the last 30+ years they built their little piece of paradise on the water. Together they enjoyed their northern life in many ways including boating, sea-doo adventures, snowmobile rides and many island parties with the occasional cocktail along the way. All who knew David will raise many a glass in his memory, celebrating all the lives he touched and all the smiles he shared along the way.
David’s Celebration of Life will be held at Dods & McNair Funeral Home, Chapel and Reception Centre, 21 First St, Orangeville on Monday April 17th, 2023 from 4pm to 8pm. Memorial donations to the ALS Society would be appreciated by the family.
A tree will be planted in memory of David in the Dods & McNair Memorial Forest at the Island Lake Conservation Area, Orangeville. 21st Annual Dedication Service will be held on Sunday September 10, 2023 at 2pm.
