into eternal rest on Monday, October 10, 2016.
He was the husband of his beloved wife of 54
years, Peggy, and the father of two sons, Michael
and Steven, and a daughter, Sharon. He
was preceded in death by his father, Gioachino
Montalbano, and mother, Josephine Latino
Montalbano. Jake, a native of New Orleans
who also lived as a child in Hammond, worked
as a draftsman at Michoud and Texaco, where he retired. He was an army
veteran and a life-long parishioner of St. Angela Merici, LSU fan and square
dancer. Devoted grandfather of Natalie, Samantha, Joel and Emily, he was
blessed with a family that included daughters-in-law Lisa and Ada, and soonto-
be son-in-law Peter. Jake now looks upon us as an angel from above, still
guiding us, including his brother, Andrew. Family and cherished friends are
invited to attend his Funeral Mass on Saturday, October 15, 2016, at 12:00pm
in the Chapel of Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home, 5100 Pontchartrain
Blvd., New Orleans. Visitation will begin at 10:00am. Interment will follow in
Lake Lawn Park and Mausoleum.
