Monell was a devout Christian and devoted member of Bayleaf Baptist Church, which she attended for many years.

She was also blessed by her seven great-grandchildren – Blaine Wiles and wife Joy, Kara Lakey, Christopher Jenke, Jack Lakey, David Jenke, Adam Fuller and Paige Fuller. She was loved by her neighbors and friends, including those from the Ruth Sunday School Class at Bayleaf.
