Patrick Anthony Fee was born in 1932 in Drumshanbo County Leitrim Ireland. His parents were Richard and Winfred Fee. He was raised with 3 sisters and 1 brother and worked on a farm until his teenage years. This is where he learned his work ethic that followed him throughout his life.
Patrick then started his journey outside of Ireland. He worked in Europe helping to build the underground infrastructure in England and surrounding areas. Later Patrick made the long ocean voyage to the USA via the Ivernia to NYC. Once there he headed to his Uncle Patrick’s house in Jamestown NY. He worked until the work ran out. After that he headed west to Rochester to start a career installing hardware for dentist offices.
Rochester is the place he met , fell in love and started a family of four children. Kevin, John, Richard and Siobhan. He thrived as a father and a businessman. During the years Patrick decided he needed to provide a better stable life for his family so he learned and mastered the art of plaster. Over the years he started his company with a close friend, Patrick O’Keeffe. In the early 1980’s he grew his own successful business which lasted over 40 years. He has left everlasting footprints of his successes all over the Rochester area which can be seen and enjoyed to this day…. In addition to his footprint’s in the business community, Patrick was very involved in his local community and church. There isn’t too many people in the Rochester/Fairport community that hasn’t heard of Patrick Fee or know his work , there is a good chance he either worked on your house or someone you know…
