Milton Henry Quick, age 70, of Scott Twp., died Friday morning at Geisinger Community Medical Center in Scranton. He is survived by his beloved wife of 43 years, Patricia Aulisio Quick.
Born in Hawley on July 29, 1944 and son of the late Theodore and Margaret Graber Quick, Milton was a graduate of the former Hawley High School, Class of 1963. A proud United States Navy and Marine Corps Veteran, he served during the Vietnam War, until he was honorably discharged in 1969. He worked as store manager of Father and Son’s Shoe Store at the Viewmont Mall, before working for Thompson Electronics and Sears, prior to his retirement. Of Roman Catholic faith, he was a member of Corpus Christi Church in Scott Twp. He also belonged to both the Vietnam Veterans of America and the Marine Corps League. He enjoyed traveling, having visited Italy, Germany, Spain and the Caribbean Islands throughout his lifetime. He also enjoyed maintaining his lawn and spending time with family and friends. Although he has passed, his legacy will live on through the lives he will inevitably save through his organ donation.
He is survived by his loving children, Chad V. Quick and wife Kristine of Mahwah, New Jersey, and Stephanie Quick, at home, and fiance Louis Mebus of Montrose; and several nieces and nephews.
A brother, Vincent Quick, and a sister, Laurella Kielar, also preceded him in death.
