  McQuaid, Patrick
  A kind, loving man, he was an easygoing, witty Irishman, and according to his wife "pecunious". He enjoyed his children, reading them the funnies on Sunday and playing cards on winter evenings. In his early 20's he took a trip to Calif. with a cousin. For their honeymoon, Celia and he took a trip by train to the Calif. coast. They went up the El Capitan Highway as far as Santa Barbara. They stopped in Denver and went to the top of Pike's Peak by horse and buggy. He farmed with his brothers, Frank and John. Before his marriage in 1910, he was living with his brother Frank. They each had a town house in Darlington and the dairy farm. Patrick went to Frank's to milk at 5am and 7pm. They bottled milk and delivered it both morning and evening. Patrick never drove. He tried to learn and wrecked Frank's car and quit. When married at 47, Patrick was well fixed financially. He was retired from farm work (other than milking) from the time he married Celia. They lived off his half of the farm income until the year before he died. In 1929, Frank and he bought a second farm. But in 1932, they lost it all due to the depression. Patrick had a stroke in May 1932; Celia never blamed finances as the reason, just high blood pressure. He had a more serious stroke in October. Patrick survived the night but was sickly from then on and pretty much bed ridden.
