We Are Heartbroken at the Tragic Loss of Robert Montgomery from Our #Archery Family
It is with the deepest sorrow and heartbreak that we share the devastating news of the passing of Robert Montgomery, a cherished and deeply respected member of our archery family. The sudden loss of Robert has left an indescribable void in our hearts and in our community—one that will not be easily filled. As we grapple with the painful reality of his absence, we come together not only to mourn but to honor the life of a man whose passion, character, and kindness left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
Robert was more than just an archer. He was a mentor, a teammate, a competitor, and above all, a friend. Known for his quiet determination, unwavering sportsmanship, and willingness to support others, Robert exemplified the true spirit of the sport. Whether he was stepping up to the line in a high-stakes competition or helping a newcomer adjust their form at a local range, Robert did it all with humility, grace, and a contagious enthusiasm that lifted everyone around him.
For many of us, Robert was a constant presence at tournaments, training sessions, and club meetings. He wasn’t just a skilled marksman—he was the kind of person who stayed late to help take down targets, encouraged younger archers during tough matches, and celebrated the successes of others as though they were his own. His legacy will live on in the countless people he inspired and the community he helped build.
The archery world is a close-knit family, and losing someone like Robert is not just a loss for those who knew him best—it is a wound felt by all who share a love for this sport. His impact rippled far beyond his personal achievements. He championed unity, resilience, and respect, and his absence will be felt every time we gather on the field, every time an arrow is loosed, every time a teammate offers a supportive word.
To Robert’s family, we extend our most heartfelt condolences. Please know that you are not alone in your grief. We mourn with you, we remember with you, and we will continue to honor Robert’s memory in all that we do. His presence will always be felt—in the stories we tell, the moments we share, and the arrows we shoot in his memory.
In times like these, words often fall short. But let us not allow this tragedy to silence the spirit that Robert brought into our lives. Let us keep his memory alive by living with the same heart he showed us—by lifting each other up, by mentoring the next generation of archers, and by never taking a single moment on the range for granted.
Rest in peace, Robert Montgomery. You will always be part of our #archery family. Your legacy lives on in every shot we take, every life you touched, and every bond you helped forge in this community that now mourns your passing. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.
