Not sure what to say?

Adored Ford we were golf buddies and he represented me in federal court and we won. Many happy memories, condolences to Madre and Jim and Gail

A fine man and respected legislator that was an invaluable asset to our region and the state. A true public servant. We were lucky to have him in the GA and as a judge. Prayers to the family and RIP Mr. Quillen

Sorry to hear about Ford passing away

My deepest condolences to the family of Ford Quillen. My family adored him-especially my Father, Ford Hubble, who always said that Ford would be someone who would be instrumental in helping the people of Southwest Virginia. I will ever be grateful to Ford and his wonderful Father for taking care of everything legally when my family passed. Love and prayers for this precious family.

Ford was truly a "Southern Gentleman" ! Southwest Virginia was fortunate to have a man of his character represent us anywhere he went! This world needs more men like him!

Words cannot express my gratitude and love for Ford. He was the smartest man I ever met and cared for everyone he served as an outstanding member of the VA legislature helping all of us in Lee, Scott, and Wise counties. I was honored to work a long side of him in the law practice for many years. My deepest condolences to his wonderful family,
