Patricia “Pat” E. Monroe passed away in her home December 10, 2018.

Born and raised on Cape Cod, Patricia made her home in Yarmouth.

Pat was a long-time employee of the US Postal Service, known to her coworkers as “Ma” and always ready with a joke or a quip. She was an avid reader, animated story-teller, and amateur race car driver to those who knew her best. Pats greatest love in life was her family. She was a true matriarch, loving mother, doting grandmother, and the most generous soul to anyone she met.

Patricia is predeceased by her parents, father Donald Ellis and stepmother Elsie, and her mother Amy Melkonian and stepfather Albert. She was also preceded in death by her sister Barbara Kelley, and her son David Monroe.

She is survived by her eldest son, Skip Monroe and daughter-in-law Tara, granddaughters Lindsay Daniels and Nicole Agaman, great-granddaughters Shelby and Savannah, and great-grandson Jaxson. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Remembrance Celebration will be held Saturday, January 5, 2018 at the Hallett Funeral Home, 273 Station Avenue, South Yarmouth, from 2:00pm to 3:00pm.

Great lady, when I was first was at the Buzzard Bay Sectional Center in 1976-1978 after a transfer from Randolph Ma where I was assistant Postmaster, to the supervisor of carriers and stations at Buzzards By before I was appointed Postmaster in Osterville in 1978, , she got me through my tough times as I learned the ropes at the "Bay" Always helpful, a great teacher, and not afraid to speak up when she knew she was right--or even wrong!! And what a personality. She set up my installation at Osterville,food,guests, and always she was there, keeping everybody happy. Rest in Peace Pat, you were the best. Sincerely Jim West

So very sorry for your loss. She so greatly loved her family. She will be missed by many.
