Ray Erwin Quilici

Ray Erwin Quilici, 84, went back to the open range on Sept. 13, 2015. Ray was born to Gilbert and Maude (Maddox) Quilici on July 5, 1931 in Dillon, Mont. Ray attended school in Twin Bridges for a few years. He went to work at a very young age, working cattle, which is what he would end up doing for most of his life. He was called away for a little over three years in 1949; he was enlisted in the Army and fought in the Korean War. Upon his return he had encountered a woman, that he had met years prior, the first meeting didn’t go so great. The second meeting, he was able to convince her that he was a pretty good guy. She later became his wife and remained to be the love of his life. Ray and Nellie (McClaren) Quilici were married in Dillon, Mont. on Aug. 22, 1956 at her parents’ home, John and Gladys McClaren. Ray had worked for various ranches throughout most of his life; he did stray away for a short time and worked as a guard for the prison in Deer Lodge, Mont. He was on duty during the prison riot that occurred in 1959. Ray and other guards were taken hostage for approximately 36 hours. Afterwards, he decided that was enough excitement and returned to doing what he loved, and that was being a cowboy. He knew that life better than anything else and he was good at it. In 1966, Ray and Nellie moved their family to Odessa, Wash. where they remained for 47 years. Ray was involved with the local VFW and American Legion for most of his residency in Odessa.
