Born in Crookston, MN and raised on the Quigley farm near Fisher, Pat was blessed with the curiosity of how all things work, and the talent to make them work.
This served him well as a graduate of Dunwoody Institute in Minneapolis and being part of the birth of the computer age contributing over 35 years of service at IBM. He was a Boy Scout leader for many years sharing his love of nature and animals and making the world a better place. He was a soft-spoken Irishman with a fierce loyalty to his family, friends, and his faith. And he took pride in being the family historian.
Preceded in death by his wife Eileen, infant son Michael, sisters Jeanne Hollands and Betty Ludescher, and brother Virgil who died in WWII. He is survived by sons Jim, Frank and Tim; daughter Patricia; sisters Kathleen Keislar and Eleanor (babe) Gregory; his loving grandchildren, and his adoring nieces and nephews.
Services will be held at St. Patrick’s Catholic church in Larkspur, California on Tuesday, February 23. The family suggests contributions in his name to the Boy Scouts of America.
