He is survived by his loving wife Judy; two sons & their wives, Neil & Holly Montgomery of West Monroe, LA and Michael & Andrea Montgomery of Austin, TX; three grandchildren Madison Montgomery, Nicholas Montgomery and Brayden Montgomery; his mother Johnnie Laing of Bastrop, LA; one brother David Laing & wife Gaye of Bastrop, LA; two sisters Linda Oldham & husband Marley of Mer Rouge, LA and Lori Gean & husband Rusty of Collinston, LA; numerous nieces and nephews.

 

Bill is preceded in death by his father Bill Montgomery, Sr.

Visitation will be Friday, April 28 at The Pentecostals of the Twin Cities in West Monroe from 5-7 PM.  Funeral services will also be held at the church on Saturday, April 29 at 10 AM with Pastor Jason Ramsey and Bishop Mark Foster officiating.  Burial will be in Kilpatrick’s Serenity Gardens in West Monroe, LA under the direction of Kilpatrick Funeral Homes.

There was only ONE William Montgomery. He was a man of few words, but when he did speak, his words carried a lot of weight. He and Judy have always been servants to so many…their arms of kindness and generosity have always reached far. I will always remember a statement that was a “William original,” which was “ 25 words or less.” I will smile every time I think of that. He was much loved by so many and will be missed. Love and prayers to Judy, Neil and Michael and their families and friends.

I am going to miss Brother William so much. He brought me into the 21st century in technology. He was a mentor to all who needed him to be. He was the most generous and patient man I have ever known! I was blessed to have known him. To Sister Judy and the rest of the family, if there is anything I can do other than pray, just let me know. I LOVE YOU ALL!

Our hearts are heavy at the loss of our friendship of William Montgomery, but Heaven rejoices over a NEW PERMANENT RESIDENT. He was always casting his bread upon the water in numerous areas of church, community and family. He is now receiving the return of all his giving from the heart. William remains a faithful member of POTC as his fingerprints are stretched from corner to corner of POTC’s entire campus. Those prints even reach outside the walls of the church because William wanted those unable to attend like my Mom, Lurline Phillips, 103 yrs old to be able to experience at home what he and his family so faithfully experienced entering the doors of worship. Judy, Neal, Michael and family, we are confident the ANGEL OF THE LORD IS ENCAMPED ROUND ABOUT YOU ALL, providing peace, comfort and strength! We miss William already greatly! Continuing to pray for all the family! ♥️??♥️
