Gerald Quick Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Modetz Funeral Home - Silverbell Chapel on Jan. 19, 2024.
Gerald Charles Quick "Jumbo"; age 64 of Rochester Hills was greeted by the mother of his children, the late Lisa Lynn Quick, as he crossed the bridge to heaven on January 16, 2024. He is survived by his mother, Beverly Ann Cole; his siblings Randy, Theresa (Terry) Garnett and Debbie (Bob) Gibbs; his children, Jared (Stacey) Quick and Jessica Quick; his grandchildren Shayla, Kaylee, Nina, Braylon and Amelia; his great-grandson Donnie; and many nieces and nephews, Randy, Janice, Courtney, Jason and Brittney. Proceeded in death by his father Gerald Clio Quick.
Jumbo served in the Naval Reserve. Throughout his life, he developed many friendships with his coworkers while working as a foreman for Ajax Paving. Jumbo was an incredibly strong man, and such a hard worker. He enjoyed spending time with family, fishing, and loved to play online games. In his free time, you could find him polishing his silver corvette, his pride and joy. He will be fondly remembered and dearly missed.
