J Alan Fielding

November 24, 2018

I was a classmate of Leigh Ann Murdock and went to church each Sunday with their family. So I knew Quentin Murdock. I remember him with fondness. My immediate reaction of hearing of his passing was that he was a very good man. My dad, Pat Fielding, loved the man and Quentin served with him in the bishopric in some capacity, perhaps as ward clerk, I don't really remember. I just know that my dad held him in high esteem. As my dad passed away a few years ago, perhaps they have met in some celestial rendevous and are enjoying each other's company anew. Quentin had a jolly disposition and a ready smile, just as the picture above shows. On behalf of the Fielding family, we extend our warmest love, condolence, and sadness at your loss of his companionship in this life. But I suspect that, for him, at his age, passing was a blessing. His legacy of courage, faith, industry and hard work, and loyalty and service to family and country will live on forever.

I was saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Murdock. He was a true American Hero. He blessed the lives of 100 of students at Dixie Highs School by coming in and speaking to my U S History classes. I truly appreciated the time he gave to us. He was so kind and interested in the students. They loved hearing his message and always wanted pictures with him after he finished speaking. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. Ellen Stucki, Dixie High School, St. George, Utah.

Sincere condolences to the family of a great man, husband, father, grand father,uncle and friend. He gave so much to his family, community and country. He was my uncle and neighbor while growing up in Rockford and I had no idea of his military service to our country until my adult life which made me appreciate and honor him even more than I did as a kid. Thoughts and prayers to the family, I wish I could be there for hugs....please accept them from afar.

So very sorry to learn of the passing of Quentin . He was a neighbor for so many years... Bought my Mom, Michi Nii her first clothes dryer because she couldn't hang her clothes out to dry because of the feedlot smell anymore. So many fond memories of me and Susie getting into trouble , starting a fire on the hay stack... Listening to both Quentin and my Dad yelling at us. My deepest sympathies to you, Miko and all of Quentin's families. May the good memories of him bring you much peace. Sincerely, Barbie (Nii) Rounds , Jupiter, Florida
