Celebration of Life For Caitlyn Montoya

6/10/2025

0 Comments

 
Picture
Monday June 16th, Elevation Church (711 4th Ave N) @ 11 AM.  Please RSVP via Facebook

From Michael:

Please join us in celebrating the life and memory of our beloved wife, mother, and friend. Children are WELCOME, and there is a space for them to gather and play in the lower level of the church if they accompany you.
Caitie would never let me hear the end of it if everyone showed up in black, so PLEASE wear whatever spring or summer attire you are comfortable in.
The service will begin at 11 AM with a luncheon to follow after. Do not feel obligated to bring anything, but a dessert or cold dish would be appropriate if you would like to contribute.
​
RSVPs will help us gauge the amount of food we need to prepare.
We look forward to seeing you there and sharing the bits of our lives the Caitie helped create.
