On September 7th, 2018, centenarian Monroe Losner disproved his claim he was "too mean to die." Born in Tampa on March 5, 1918, Monroe spent most of his life in Homestead and Miami. Though his family lured him to Atlanta in 1987, Monroe remained a Floridian at heart. During WWII, he enlisted in the Army, serving in North Africa and Italy with the 1st Armored Division (Old Ironsides). Pride for his service never waned-late in life he was rarely seen without a custom cap featuring his service record. Monroe was most proud of his family and went out of his way to provide them advice and assistance. His later life focused on his three great-grandchildren, Max Losner, Noah Mallegol, and Mila Mallegol, four grandchildren, Brad (Rebecca) Losner, Jenna (Greg) Mallegol, Jason Kahn and Michael Kahn, and children Mark (Yvonne) Losner and Debbie (Steve) Kahn. Now, Monroe is once again beside his wife of 52 years, Lillian, at Arlington Memorial Park in Sandy Springs. Memorial donations can be made to Honor Flight, Inc (honorflight.org), National WWII Museum (nationalww2museum.org), the Alzheimer's Association (alz.org), or a charity of your choice.
