Not sure what to say?

I miss his incredible wisdom, but I´m so grateful that I got to know him and call him my friend.

Mr. Quinn was such a game changer in my life when I met him. He's without a doubt one of the most inspiring people I've ever been around. This man made me believe in myself again. He was so different, and larger than life. I admired him with deep reverence. Thank you, my mentor and friend.

I was in Mr. Quinn's (as we called him) Art Class at Whitten Jr High School in Jackson, MS in 1970 or 71. He made a great impact on me and others. His faith in Jesus was off the charts. He spoke of Him often. I and others would travel with him to school events in own personal vehicle. He believed in School Spirit. He was truly a gifted man of God and he loved people and his students. I look forward to seeing him again in Heaven. Dr. A M (Mike) Haase

Mr. Quinn, my first art teacher at Whitten, instilled a love of art that I still have today. He was one of the best teachers I ever had the pleasure of learning from. My sincere condolences to his loved ones.

I was in the first 9th grade at Whitten where I met Mr Quinn. Then he had a stroke and was sent to Westeria Gardens for rehab. When I found out I went to see him and he remembered me (I was across the hall). He was a Great Man RIP!!

I was a student of Mr. Quinn's at Whitten Junior High for three years. Great art teacher, great man. I will never forget him. Rest in peace.

Fondly remembered,

Such a kind & gifted man. I learned so much from him, as my art teacher at Whitten Jr. High. My condolences to the family.
