February 10, 2022. Monroe, known to his friends as "Pardlow" or "Big Man", loved classic western, martial arts and action films. He was especially fond of John Wayne's films and spaghetti westerns. He passed on his love for classic films to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved to travel to visit old friends in South Carolina. In his later years, he enjoyed spending time with his great-grandchildren eating ice cream.

He was a hard-working and dedicated father and provider, working at RJ Reynolds Tobacco for over 30 years. He was also employed with Dining Services at Winston-Salem State University. He was preceded in death by his loving wife, parents and 12 siblings.
