(Card) Miller in Hawarden, Iowa. He attended the Miller School and graduated from Hawarden High School in 1940. He was a life-long member of the Methodist Church. Quinten married his high school sweetheart and soul mate, Wanda Keehn, of Hawarden on February 19, 1944. They began their farming career renting land near Hawarden. In 1947, the couple bought a farm in the Beresford area. Quinten loved farming and feeding cattle and hogs. He shared this joy with youth as a 4-H leader for many years. Quinten was a talented wood-worker; a hobby he shared with his wife. Together they made beautiful pieces from oak and walnut for family and enjoyed taking their creations to craft fairs throughout the region. Family was Quinten's greatest love. His treasure was his wife, Wanda, of 68 years. He took immense pride and joy in his five children, 14 grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren.
