To this family,
I am responding to this news with a very heavy heart. I have known Quinton since he was a student at Behrman Jr High School. He was always a very respectful and courteous young man. We had a lengthy conversation in " Piccadilly" on Lapalco Blvd just a few months ago. He was so very proud of his wife and family. I was equally as proud of the young man that he had become.

Jackie and family: When I was a young girl, I thought Quinton was like the Hulk or Hercules (in my mind, no body was as strong as Quinton). Although he was the same age as my older brother, he was a very lively, funny, boisterous and family-loving young man. If he was in a room, his laughter would be unmistakable. It was awesome to go to Behrman Stadium back in the day and see him charging through lines on the football field. It filled me with pride to know he was my Cousin Quinton. As an adult you and came to my office on Canal Street and even though I hadn’t seen him in a very long time, he had nothing but love and pride for me. There’s so much history with respect to our grandmothers both being sisters and marrying two brothers from Ironton and so many memories of celebrations past from our grandmothers’ birthday parties on Nunez Street and Ocean Ave. (waaaaay back in the day) to hold onto. He was magnanimous! Rest in Peace, Quinton. Much love to you and the children and extended family. See you all on tomorrow. I’ve attached a photo of my big bro and Q from a family reunion in Avondale back in 2015.
