Sadly, we lost an important member of our design community a couple of weeks ago: Monte Mindt, most recently creative director with Quisenberry Marketing, and for many years prior with Hanna & Associates. Monte passed away January 12. He was 49 years old.
I knew Monte for more than 20 years. One of my favorite print pieces we ever produced was a promotional brochure for Johnston Printing’s new six-color press. It featured the work of six prominent local designers. Monte was among that group.
I ran across his work from time to time and I always admired it. And every year when I attended the local advertising awards show—where his name would often be called—we would warmly greet and catch up with one another.
Thank you, Monte, for your creative contributions.
