Like Mother Teresa 42 years before, Charles Monroe of Seacaucus, NJ was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his undying love for and selfless devotion to all of humanity.

Monroe, 42, is an assistant manager for Verizon Wireless at their call center in New York City. The Norwegian Nobel Committee selected Monroe from among 384 candidates, beating out, most notably, Dr. Uday Modi of Mumbai, who takes free food to nearly 500 elderly people daily ~ all of whom have been abandoned by their children.

Born in Montgomery, Alabama in 1979, Monroe’s parents, Tom and Billie, moved Charles and his two brothers to Seacaucus in 1994. Tom Monroe is not surprised that his son received the Nobel Peace Prize.

“When my son was just a youngster, he was always nice to people. One time in grade school his teacher told us that he held the door open for a kid. He truly loves people. He deserved to win a Nobel Prize.”

According to employees at the Wal Mart Supercenter in Seacaucus, Monroe always has two N95 masks and walks throughout the store with a tape measure stretched out to not merely six feet, but twelve.

He walks with purpose, his head constantly on a swivel, ensuring he doesn’t get within twelve feet of anyone, or they, him. Because of his unwavering dedication to preserving the lives of the other human beings he comes across, it often takes him five hours to complete his shopping.
