He dedicated his life to Christ and joined Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church on May 25, 2008. “Quan”, as he was affectionately known, had a big personality and always had a warm hug and loving words for friends and family whenever you saw him. He never hesitated to boldly greet you with the words, “Cuz” or “Family” loudly and proudly whenever or wherever you encountered him.
