Not sure what to say?

Jim Quinn was an inspiration, and then a mentor, and then a friend. His music had a joy that never disappointed. I was fortunate to work with him, and delight in our love for music. I thought of him today, and although it is years too late, I wanted to express my feelings for Jim. A solid man, from whom we could all learn, and have learned a lot.

Dr. Quinn was the greatest influence in my life. I was in his extraordinary Humanities classes in 1989-90. I adored how he got even the most disinterested student fired up and engaged. I think Spats was a puppy then. I took every class of his I could. My heart is full of sorrow that this world has lost such a great man. I am also full of joy because I believe that we return to Love. What a celebration it must be in Heaven to have such a beautiful spirit returned Home. Many blessings to Audrey...

very impressive life & accomplishments. As a 'younger cousin' of a large extended Irish-American immigrant, Jim was always a person to admire.

I was surprised and saddened by the death notice of your husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Back in 1979 I was "Father" Don Skiba and was producer of a religious show on NBC called Gamut. Your dad, John Powers and Mike Nusbaum were all guests while the show was still in production.

Sorry to hear the passing of Jim. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Rest in peace

Our deepest sympathy to you, Audrey, and your family. You may recall, we´re the couple that sat behind you at the Northwestern University´s football games for many years. We missed you both when you stopped coming. We have the same season tickets and think of you whenever we attend a game. May Jim´s memory be a blessing. Love, Marilyn & Gary

Thinking of you at this sad time. Sending love and prayers to all the family. I love listening to the cd Jim gave me. so talented!!

Thru Mike and Marilyn, while we were in Spain, I met Jim and Audrey. We were immediately friends, and within days took a road trip thru Portugal together. What a beautiful experience, and such a joy to share with these amazing people. Their views of life and living have been a constant inspiration to me, so full of adventure and fun. They never hesitated to find a new road. My friend, Diego Qui, and his lovely Lady, Audrey, have shown us love and light and how to have an extraordinary life....
