Quinn Swinington

Greenfield, MA - It is with great sadness we mourn the loss of Quinn Swinington. He was born on November 12, 1997 at Franklin Medical Center. He died at the age of 27 on August 27, 2025. His mother Michelle Brule was from Greenfield, MA. His father William Swinington, Jr. was raised in Chesterfield, MA. William Sr. predeceased Quinn in 2010 and is buried at St. Mary's cemetery in Williamsburg, MA. Yvonne Swinington his grandmother adored him and continues to reside in "Burgy". He has 2 aunts and an uncle who will miss him greatly.

He was born with a special need and received excellent care from Franklin Medical Baystate, The Reach Program of Franklin County, Boston Children's Center, and the Shriners Children's Hospital. I would like to thank his aides who took care of him all through his education. Even though he bit many of you out of frustration I had it worse than you.

On his weekends with his father, who still lives at 273 Chapman St Greenfield, MA. He loved his travels to the Hoosac Tunnel and to Florida mountain to see the elk statue. He loved playing his Play Station 4 and his Lego guys. He excelled at his Lego Star Wars games. When he would get frustrated with his game he would ask his father for help, however he always figured it out himself. He loved his Blue Seal hotdogs which gave him so much pleasure.

Calling hours will be held at Kostanski Funeral Home on Federal St. Greenfield, MA on Thursday, September 11, 2025 from 4 to 6 P.M.

In Lieu of flowers please consider donations to the Franklin County Reach Program or The Shriners Children's Hospital in Springfield, MA.

I am so sorry to hear of Quinn´s passing. I attended school with him years ago and he was a special young man. I still remember how excited everyone was when he said hi to me unprompted in the hall one day. May he rest well.
