Patricia A. Aulisio Quick, 70, a longtime Scott Twp. resident and recently a guest at Abington Manor, died Saturday morning after a longtime illness. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 43 years, Milton Henry Quick, on April 17, 2015.
Raised in Old Forge and born on Nov. 19, 1950, Patricia was the daughter of the late George A. “Chicken” and Estelle (Kalina) Aulisio and a graduate of Old Forge High School. Despite a grim cancer diagnosis at age 19, she not only beat the odds but soon began raising a family. She was humorous, caring and an absolute people person. She adored her family and spending time with them, especially during her annual Thanksgiving dinner. She enjoyed traveling with her husband, baking, her Dachshund pups and working outside in her flower beds. For years she had also worked at Eddie’s Nursery and Six East Restaurant in Dickson City. She’s now at peace and will be forever missed by family and friends.
She is survived by his loving family: children, Chad V. Quick and wife, Kristine, of Mahwah, New Jersey; and Stephanie Quick and husband, Louis Mebus, of Scott Twp.; siblings, George Aulisio and wife, Carol, of Taylor; and Joseph Aulisio and wife, Diane, of Old Forge; and several nieces and nephews.
She was also preceded in death by a brother, Anthony Aulisio.
The funeral will be Thursday at 9:30 a.m. from the Thomas P. Kearney Funeral Home Inc., 517 N. Main St., Old Forge, with Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. in St. Mary’s Assumption Church, Prince of Peace Parish, Old Forge, to be celebrated by the Rev. August Ricciardi, pastor. Burial will follow at Old Forge Cemetery.
