Nathan, Tyke and Dale,
I have so many fond memories of your Mom. Remember that funny little bike she used to ride over to my Mom's house? We all laughed, cried, sang, and baked together. I grew up with her as an integral part of our family. The pots of coffee her and Mom consumed are immeasurable! I always made it a point to take the time to talk with her whenever I saw her and have always thought highly of her. I have missed her since I moved to Billings and will continue to do so. I know you, her sons, will miss her as well. When you remember her dwell on all the good things, the laughs, and fun times spent together. She will never leave you because she lives in your heart and no one can take that from you. I send you my love, and my deepest most sincere sympathy. She was a good woman and a true friend. I will hold you all in my prayers. God Bless!

Please accept my deepest condolences to you, the son's of Mona, and close friends and family. My three daughters and I lived in the upper apartment next to Mona for sixteen years. I've missed our morning coffee and lengthy visits we had ever since I moved out of our apartment and then out of Montana. She truly had a heart of gold and the spirit to go with it. She would dog sit our yellow lab, Grizzly when we had to go out of town. They became pretty good buds. I tried to befriend Miss Muffit but she wanted nothing to do with me the majority of the time. I was allowed a pet or two when it was on her terms. A wonderfully unique cat with a wonderfully unique woman. May my dear friend rest-in-peace and find comfort in the Lord's Hands. God bless you all and know that she was a wonderful woman, a loyal friend and will be greatly missed. Godspeed to you, children of Ramona.

It was a privilege to know Mona. I got to know her through the Heritage Center. I first met her in the hospital when I had our daughter. They thought I was her and kept asking me where was the baby. I kept telling them I think it is coming.Mona had delivered at home and was on her way to the hospital. It was Christmas Eve morning 1963. I missed her emails after I moved from Fairview to Helena in 2013. She helped me numerous time with family research. I am sorry for your loss and hope you have many memories to ease the pain.

To Ramona's family,
I have many wonderful memories of your Mom and the time we spent together many years ago when I lived in Sidney. She had a wonderful sense of humor and a deep interest in local history. She will be missed. May your memories bring a smile to your face when you think of her. With sympathy, love, and prayers,

Mona will be truly missed. From her wealth of knowledge, to the great stories she would tell me and the girls. Her laugh was infectious, and never failed to brighten my day.

My thots and prayers go out to Nathan, Tyke and Dale and their families. I will miss you Mona. You have been in my life since I was 6-7 yrs old. You were one of my moms best friends and I remeber many good times thru those years. I still remember the dress you sewed for my 8th birthday, one I saw in a magazine, you made a pattern and found the material and made it for me. I will never forget that. You were pretty much a part of my life except for few years I was gone. But I met up with you again at the MonDak and I really enjoyed those years with working and visiting with you. You will be missed. Love you
