John Monroe
John Judson Monroe, 75, of 9488 African Hill Road, Columbia, Maryland, a member of the Monroe family which has been identified with the Collinsville Herald since 1917, died on 30 Mar 1988 in Howard County Hospital, Columbia.
He had suffered from colon cancer and its complications since it was diagnosed four years ago, but took a turn for the worse two weeks ago.
He had been in government service since 1944 when he was commissioned in the U.S. Navy. After foreign language school at Colorado University, he was assigned to Washington D.C.
In 1951, he was discharged from the Navy to join the Navy Security Services (now the National Security Agency).
He held various technical and management positions there until his retirement on 25 Mar shortly before his death.
He was well enough to attend a ceremony earlier this year where he was awarded the nation's highest civilian award, the Exceptional Civilian Service Award. He had previously been awarded the Meritorious Civilian Service Award.
He graduated from Collinsville Township High School in 1929 and from Illinois College in 1933 where he earned Phi Beta Kappa honors.
He was editor of the student newspaper, the Rambler, was president of Phi Alpha Literary Society, was a varsity tennis player and was active in chorus and dramatics.
He was a former board member of the Collinsville Memorial Public Library.
Services were held at 2 p.m. on Saturday at St. John's Episcopal Church, Ellicott City, Maryland were he was registrar of the vestry.
Memorials have been requested to the memorial fund at St. John's Episcopal Church.
Born in Jacksonville, Illinois, he was the son of the late James Oliver Monroe Sr. and Freda Koch Monroe.
He and his former wife, Evalee Valline, who now lives in Arizona, had six children, all of whom survive: Mrs. Robert (Jonni) Nehus of Bowling Green, Missouri, Jud Monroe of Laguna Beach, California, Douglas Monroe of New York, Mrs. Jerry (Dierdre) Boak of Ithaca, New York, Bill Monroe of Baltimore, Missouri, and Mrs. Paul (Cindy) Bernstein of Kensington, Maryland.
In 1968, he married Patricia Anderson. They have two daughters, Caitlin, a student at Western Maryland College, and Megan, at home.
His father, the late Sen. james O. Monroe Sr., bought the Collinsville Herald in 1917. He served this district in the state legislature most of the time from 1930-1962.
When the five children of Sen. Monroe incorporated the Herald in 1954, John became a director, a post he held until the family sold the paper to the Post Corporation of Appleton, Wisconsin in 1977.
Other survivors include a brother, Karl L. Monroe of Collinsville, who still writes for the Herald; and one sister, Mrs. Ronald (Elizabeth) Stevens of Collinsville.
Two brothers, Circuit Judge James Oliver Monroe Jr., and Thomas Warren Monroe, preceded him in death.
