Barbara L. Monroe, 81

LOVELL — Barbara Littlefield Monroe, 81, passed away peacefully on Thursday, July 5, 2018.

She was born on Jan. 24, 1937. Barbara grew up in Maine with her brother, John Littlefield, who predeceased her. She graduated from Deering High School and went to Smith College. After graduating, Barbara moved to New York and got a job at Morgan Guaranty Trust Company, where she met her husband, James.

Barbara left her job to start a family, and she had five children, Clay, Shelby, Chris, Charlie and John. She was a very generous and dedicated wife and mother. Barbara loved to laugh, and she laughed often. She enjoyed rich desserts, a strong cup of tea, and the music of Harry Connick Jr. Barbara loved animals, and Pixie, her devoted Dandie Dinmont terrier, was by her side during her final days.

Barbara is survived by her sons and daughter.

She was predeceased by her husband, James.

A family gathering will be held at her home in July.

Arrangements are in the care of the Wood Funeral Home, 9 Warren Street, Fryeburg. Condolences and tributes may be shared with her family at www.woodfuneralhome.org
