Loretta Frances Monahan Born December 13, 1926 and died February 14, 2020. Loretta lived a long life and made a difference in many lives while she was here.
She was a loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother and mother-in-law. She is survived by her children, James (Kathleen), Carol (Jimmy), Janice (John) and Catherine (Felix). She also leaves her loving grandchildren, James, Tim (Jaima), Katie (Todd), Nicole, Lauren and David as well as her great grandchildren, Teddy and Lucas. Her husband, James, predeceased her.
Loretta set an example for all with her love of education, reading, music and travel. Through example, she quietly instilled the values of service to others, doing the right thing and honesty. A Catholic, she had a strong and loving relationship with God, enjoyed Mass, liturgical music and meditation. She accepted people as they were and looked for the best in all.
Mrs. Monahan was long time, loved fourth grade teacher at Mary Queen of Heaven Elementary School in Brooklyn, New York. She left a lasting impression on many young lives during her years as a teacher. Very recently, a former student posted in a Mary Queen of Heaven Facebook group that she remembers Mrs. Monahan reading Charlotte’s Web to her fourth grade class in the mid 1970’s.
It is fitting that Loretta Monahan died on Valentine’s day. Her love survives her.
