Not sure what to say?

I miss my dad. He was such a consistent source of emotional support for me and my family, particularly when any of us were in need of a boost. He felt our hurts perhaps more than we did.

My grandpa was a very educated, smart man. He was a great person to everybody, and the best grandpa a girl could ask for. He will be missed. Love you, Papa Q.

Paula, My oldest and dearest friend, I am so sorry. Your dad was a very kind and generous man. I will never forget what he did for me years ago. We never would of made it to Arizona without his help. He was a witty man and always made me laugh. I know he must have been so proud of the road you chose in life. Keep your memories alive. I know he will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Love, Michelle

The Everts (Colleen, Ed, Kate and Jenny) already miss this wonderful and brilliant man. We spent many Christmas Eves together, discussing our blessings and the issues of the day. I will always remember his mental acuity and his ability to keep people, ideas and things in perspective. We can all recall his “random acts of kindness” and how he made us laugh at ourselves and our foibles. A keen intellect has passed this way. May the angels and saints watch over him.

Sorry to hear of Jim's passing.
"Mr. Quetsch" was my neighbor in West Chicago. He helped me with a legal problem when I was in high school (he would not take payment from me). He was a great man.

I appeared before Judge Questch many times. I conducted 2 jury trials before Judge Questch and have found him to very fair and knowledgeable. I am honored to have known him. My condolences.

Having practiced law in Kane County for more than 25 years, Judge Quetsch is in my mind the quintessential judge. He was always in complete command of his courtroom, and made good decisions. He is the first image I will always have whenever I think of the word "judge". He was also a good guy, and I will miss him.

So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was a good friend and a great guy!

I am sorry to hear of your loss. He was quite the person as a judge, and will be missed by all that knew him.
