    «i»MONROE, John Lee, 58, passed away on Monday, July 30, 2012, after sudden heart failure at work on Friday, July 27.

    John served the Department of Defense (DoD) for more than 20 years at Defense General Supply Center Richmond, and most recently as an inventory management specialist at the Defense Logistics Aviation office, supporting the DoD Ozone Depleting Substances Reserve and serving all branches of the U.S. military.

    A graduate of Douglas Southall Freeman High School and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (now Virginia Tech), John had many interests, from gardening and environmental protection to the science of the universe, but most especially his Celtic heritage, and could trace his ancestry and quote Gaelic songs and poetry. He was a lifetime member in the USA and international (Scottish) Clan Munro organizations, the members of which will mourn his loss at their annual gathering later this month in Boston.

    John was predeceased by his twin brother, Robert G. Monroe; and his father, William T. Monroe Sr.; and is survived by his mother, Corinne A. Monroe of Richmond; brother, William T. Monroe Jr. of Gulfport, Miss. (June); sister, Diana L. Monroe of Richmond; and extended family, Lois and Lewis Ackert of San Jose, Calif., Shirley Hitchcock of Saugerties, N.Y., Mark Monroe (Patti) of Fairfax, Va., Lorna Dodt (Robert) of Annandale, Va., James Hitchcock of Harmony, N.C., William T. Monroe III (Joy) of Saucier, Miss., and Robert G. Monroe of Alexandria, La. He will be sorely missed by his family of co-workers at the Defense Logistics Aviation office and many lifelong friends.

    Interment will be private; however, a celebration of John's life will be held at a later date at the Parham Chapel of Woody Funeral Home.

    Our world is dimmer without this gentle giant, and condolences may be left at www.woodyfuneralhome parham.com«u» «/u». In lieu of flowers or other gifts, the family suggests that contributions be made to John's alma mater, Virginia Tech.«/i»
