Inspiration
Marilyn Frakes Quinn was born Marilyn Jean Frakes on Halloween in 1937. Her mother died of asthma when she was a small child, and her father gave her over to her older sister to raise. She grew into a young woman in Southern Missouri, living in a small shack without electricity or running water until she completed high school, married, and in 1954 moved to Buckroe Beach in Hampton, Va., as the wife of a young Airman. She moved back to Missouri and had three sons, but by 1970 was divorced. Soon after the divorce, her uninsured house burned down, and she was left homeless with three boys to raise on her own.
Too proud to accept public aid, she moved her whole family into her brother's kitchen and started looking for work. The only previous work she had done was chopping cotton and serving as a department store clerk in her youth. After several failed attempts at starting a career, she obtained a Licensed Practical Nurse certificate and was thereafter able to support her family and get all three sons to complete a college education. She eventually became Safety Director for a St. Louis Ship shipyard. In 1992, she became one of the last people in the state of Missouri to be allowed to sit for the Nursing Home Administrators exam who did not have formal postsecondary training in health care administration. She taught herself college-level management, personnel, and finance, and passed the test. From 1992 to 1996 she was administrator of the River Oaks Care Center in Steele, Missouri, which she transformed into a vibrant, loving community for elders and the disabled. Mrs. Quinn currently resides in Steele, Missouri , with her husband of more than 20 years.
