Christopher Quinn was a giant of a good man whose strong character, enduring faith, inspiration, wit and wisdom touched many persons.

For over 30 years, he has been an inspirational father-in-law and friend to me.

Dad, may God always keep you near to Him and protect and comfort those you loved and who have loved you.

My deepest sympathies are extended to Hedy (Mom), Chris, Pat, Michelle & Brian and to all who shared a little time with Chris Quinn.
