Ralph R. McQuade Jr.: An Interview Part 1

!!Highly recommended that you listen with headphones!!
This is an interview I did with my father around 20 years ago. He talks about his father, his uncle, and his sister as well as a few others. This was originally on a mini cassette and has been cleaned up and digitized, but it's still recommended you wear headphones for a better audio experience. I have edited out quite a bit for time and due to audio quality.
