Special to the Enquirer 

Morgan County’s Fleda Stringer Monk was born June 16, 1914, and celebrated her 107th birthday this past weekend. Her family and friends were present at South Park Senior Center in Falkville to commemorate her special day. Because of COVID-19, a parade was held to honor her 106th birthday this past year at Falkville Health Care, where she is a resident. After more than a year of very little contact, this was a very special day, according to her family. She is the mother of the late Holland Monk, Frank Monk, Larry Monk and Carl Monk.
