Mr. Quinn,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Navy during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

To Auntie Claire and all my cousin, sometimes it is hard to say things that are close to my heart, but I want you to know that Uncle Jess was not just an uncle. Uncle Jess was like a father. He cared for us all and kept up with all our goings-on. He always had a story to tell that often had us laughing. He was a great story teller.
Uncle Jess will always be in my memory as the one who gave us the special Christmas Eves with Mitch Miller, and his own music - the guitar, the panio, or his own instrumental voice, especially with Ol Suzanna.
Uncle Jess will truly be missed, but I'm sure he will never be forgotten when we all get together and share all our memories and stories.
He is in a better place and he'll be there to meet us all one day.
Love to all, Karen and Family
