Quinton was born on July 24, 1999, to his loving parents, Scott Matya and Teri Kahle.
Quinton was a bright and energetic man who brought joy to everyone around him. He had a contagious smile and a love for life that was evident from the moment he was born.

He was a happy and curious man who was always eager to learn and explore the world around him. His heart was one of gold and everyone who had even a glimpse of time with Quinton was impacted by his kindness and energy.
