Monica Herron

Monica Herron got her wings after a courageous battle with cancer on Monday at Geisinger Community Medical Center, Scranton.

Born in Norristown, PA, she was the daughter of the late James and Marguerite Gordon.  Monica attended Bishop Kenrick High School followed by the Montgomery School of Nursing.

Monica was a dedicated mother first and foremost.  She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them.  She especially loved her role as Mom Mom. She shaped her grandchildren's lives, teaching them countless things.  Monica had a kind, compassionate heart and touched the many lives she encountered.  She also loved fishing and crosswords.  She was a member of Parker Hill Church and had a strong faith in God her entire life.

Surviving are two sons, William Timko, Dalton, Erich Timko, John Day, OR, and a daughter Megan Locker,  and husband Paul, South Abington Township; grandchildren Kayla, Derek, and Greyson Locker and Cajsa and Chance Timko; sisters Joan Cahill and Marie Gerard, Pottstown and sister-in-law Kay Sugalski, Royersford; brothers Robert Gordon and wife Dolly, Norristown, William and wife Pat, Steelton, and Dennis and wife Taffy, Warrington; many nieces and nephews, all of which she loved deeply.

She was preceded in death by brother James Gordon and sister Judy Smull and infant siblings George and Bridget Gordon.

A memorial service will be held at a later date with arrangements by Lawrence Young Funeral Home, 418 South State Street, Clarks Summit.
