McQuade began caring for the elderly when she was a child. After chores (家务) were done, she would help elderly neighbours with her grandmother, often taking along food and gifts. These experiences and her close relationship with her grandmother planted the seeds for a lifetime of helping the elderly. When McQuade grew up, she became a housewife. She took care of her kids and had many grandchildren. She believed that spending time with elderly loved ones was very important and wanted to create a holiday where families could enjoy themselves together. In the early 1970s, she started her journey to make the holiday a reality. She kept calling and writing letters to the local and state leaders until she finally got attention in 1973 from Senator Jennings Randolph. He introduced to the Senate (参议院) the idea of making Grandparents Day a national holiday. His plan fell through in the Senate, but McQuade didn’t get discouraged. After years of efforts, her hard work paid off. On August 3rd, 1978, the president officially made Grandparents Day a national holiday. He also stated how important it was to honour grandparents and understand the value of family. Although Grandparents Day began in the US, it is now celebrated in many other countries.
