Le was a former resident of Leominster, Mass. and moved to Plymouth in 2004. She was known to many as a cheerfully helpful small claims deputy in the Marshall County Clerk’s office over the past eight years.
Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts on March 22, 1951, Le is one of Charles L. and Alice B. (Mulqueeny) Munroe’s six children.
She received her education at Acton-Boxboro High School graduating with the Class of 1969. Le then attained her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from Framingham College also in Mass. For many years Le served as subsidiary computer programmer for the Digital Equipment Corporation then becoming Electronic Data Systems. Le was a member of St. Michael Roman Catholic Church in Plymouth, having served on the School Board many years. She was also a longtime volunteer with St. Joseph Regional Medical Center – Plymouth Campus. With a sense of her giving to others, Le was enrolled into the Gifts of Hope donor services program in Illinois.
