Ian MONTGOMERY Obituary

Peacefully on March 15, 2024 at Green Gables Rest Home. Dearly loved husband and best friend of Pam for 54 years. Loved son of the late Ron and Jean. Our grateful thanks to all of you who have supported us both over the past 3 months while we have been in Nelson, first at Hospice and then at Green Gables. Your many visits and texts have meant so much to us both and helped us keep going through a very difficult time. Our love to you all. In keeping with Ian's wishes, a private cremation has been held.

One of the kindest gentleman I have had the honour of knowing. Your love, understanding and warm smile will forever be cherished memories (as well as the rather speedy trip to hospital you drove for me when my waters broke!)
Pam and Ian showed the world what love could really do and are a true inspiration of how to "do life"!
My deepest sympathies and warmest hugs
Love India and Lily-rose (and Paisley pup) xxxx
