We are in a season when many faiths around the world are celebrating High Holy days. Our Muslim sisters and brothers just finished their Ramadan. Our Jewish sisters and brothers are about to begin their Passover. And our Christian sisters and brother are soon to be celebrating Resurrection Sunday, also known as Easter Sunday. One of my favorite Easter traditions is to go down to the beach near our home and quietly join one of the many services which take place on Sunday morning. I then rush home to make my crew get up to attend our home church’s Easter service. You can catch me (and my daughter) wearing one of my many hats on that Sunday and trying to sit in the back to avoid blocking other parishioner’s views. (… and here you thought I was just obsessed with shoes! Ha!) Here are some fun examples below.

FUN FACT- St. Valentine is believed to have been a priest in Rome during the reign of Emperor Claudius II around 270 AD. His life is shrouded in mystery, with various accounts suggesting he may have also been a bishop in Terni, Italy. He is most famously known for defying the emperor's orders by performing secret marriages for Christian couples, which was against the law at the time. Claudius II had banned marriages for young men, believing that single men made better soldiers. My prayer for each of you is that you can find love within YOURSELF and give yourself the same love, kindness and grace that you give to others!

Growing up Easter was one of my favorite holidays. I would love to say it was due to the spiritual significance as the celebration of the crucifixion and resurrection of my Savior, but that would be a bold-faced lie. I loved Easter for the OUTFITS! I am certain my love affair with accessories began with the white gloves and hats (see Exhibit A below for reference . . . LOL)! My mother would meticulously gather all our outfits and spend the time pressing our hair. And THEN, the ladies of the church would “ooh and ahh’ and ask us to twirl and this brought my young fashionista heart pure JOY!

March 17th is better known in my home as Happy Jose Montas Day due to it being my father’s birthday. My father was born in 1949 in the Dominican Republic. He is a man of words, family, and fashion. One of the most significant stories of my childhood came about after we moved to United States. We were an immigrant family who spoke barely any English. There was a kid on my bus who loved to torment, bully, and harass me daily. One day, as we got off the bus, he grabbed my backpack and tossed it in the canal. I came home devasted. When my father arrived home and heard what occurred he marched down to this young boy’s home to discuss the matter with the boy’s father. Although the man was initially not appropriate in the interaction (like father, like son!), my father’s charm, engagement, and WISDOM won the day. He was able to get the man to agree to buy my destroyed items and elicited an apology from the son. When we left, the two fathers shook hands like gentlemen. Thank you Papi for loving your daughters well and Happy (belated) Birthday!

February is derived from the Latin februo which means purity or to cleanse. Interestingly, when Numa Pompilius first added February to the calendar in 700 BC, he placed it at the end of the calendar. That’s right, February was the last month on the calendar. And there, February remained for nearly 200 years when January and February were moved to the beginning of the year by Julius. Of course, who can forget that on the 14th of February we celebrate the Feast of Saint Valentine. A Christian feast day honoring a martyr named Valentine, and intended as a religious and commercial celebration of romance and love in many regions of the world. So, whatever the highlight of your February may be, I pray it be filed with love.

As I mentioned last month, the Firm has changed from Johnson & Montas to Montas Turner. In 2009 when I joined what was then Johnson Law Center, I never expected the growth and changes we have experienced. I would not have expected that I would end up joining forces with Scott Turner, who has been a long-time mentor of mine and also worked under Jon Johnson at one time. Scott has over 30 years of experience in civil litigation. I am thrilled to see what is in store for this year. However, before I focus on the future, I want to take a moment to honor the past. Jon Johnson was my partner and mentor and is my friend. It was very bittersweet to remove his name from the letterhead. I am beyond appreciative of the potential he saw in me. I am honored he trusted me with his legacy and while his name may no longer be on the letterhead, his customer service, attention to detail, and love for the law will continue to be a significant part of the Firm. Cheers to 2025!

As I was reminded of the timing of the speech and its relation to Labor Day, I was encouraged to share the closing line of his speech- “…and when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: Free at last.
