In Lieu of Flowers

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that contributions be made to an education fund for the girls.

At times like these what can anyone say to soothe the anguish and pain the family of John is feeling now.
John and our two oldest sons, David & Steven as well as their cousin Roger Jr were all within a couple of years of each other and were constantly “living on the edge” whenever they got together.
John loved what he was doing, flying. The hardest part about all of this is the people he left behind. We all have wonderful memories of John and how he loved and cared for his family.

Our prayers go out to his wife, Julie and their three wonderful daughters – Keely, Maddy & Erin. Also, to his sister, Susan, we will remember all the fun things which you & John shared.
The entire extended family – Quinlan, Ripke, Ruscansky, Cresci, Demcsak & Mocko will ensure that the memory of John will be of the good times we all shared.

I haven't seen John in about 18 years. I was from a different high school, but we attended a vocational school together and were friends during this time. He was great to be around. The article in the paper this morning was a shock to me. I will remember him for the kind person he was, his laugh (he always seemed to smiling) and for how well he was liked by everyone.

John and I didn't know each other a long time and hadn't kept in touch, but I think the fact that he could make someone who only knew him a short time and hadn't seen him for 18 years feel like they had lost a good friend, only speaks to the kind of person that John was.

My sympathy goes out to his family.

John Quinlan was a great man.

John;
Today is the 4th anniversary!
We still miss you!
Your girls are all growing up to be young ladies. I have been in communication with Keely via Facebook. We've "chatted" often!
Aunt Linda & I think of you often, but especially today - February 18.
Uncle John
