Holly A. Montoure, age 56 of the Town of Wescott, passed away on Monday afternoon, March 23, 2026, peacefully surrounded by her loving family and dog at her home.
Holly was born December 30, 1969, in Green Bay, a daughter of Gerald and Carol (Baake) Kaiser. Holly attended school in Suring before attending and graduating from Oconto Falls High School. Following high school, Holly worked building fire trucks at 3D Manufacturing. After they closed, she returned to school, earning her bachelor’s degree from U.W.G.B. where she received a major in Education and a minor in Environmental Science.
On March 11, 1994, Holly was united in marriage to the truest love of her life, Carl Montoure. The two of them shared many happy years together as well as two wonderful children and two beautiful granddaughters that they love so dearly. Holly was a member of St. Jakobi Lutheran Church where she celebrated her deep faith. Holly joined the Sacred Heart school family where she taught many different grades and subjects. Her last few years she taught art which was her passion. Holly enjoyed gardening, raising her chickens, and spending time with her children and grandchildren. When she wasn’t outside enjoying nature or teaching, she spent her time at her store (Staff of Life) which she owned with her daughter Miranda. Holly loved working at the store and cherished the conversations and relationships she built with all of her wonderful customers. Holly touched so many lives and will be so deeply missed by so many.
