Quinton was a very quiet man that knew the Lord and loved his family. He was married to my cousin Betty Mcbride. We were a very close family and it breaks my heart to hear of his passing. My prayers go out to his children, Leigh and Dennis McBride my second cousins. I know God has all of you wrapped in his arms and he will give you the strength to go on. Quinton will always be remember with fond memories by all who knew him.

i am so sorry to hear that Quinton has passed away. He and Betty have been our friends for such a long time. He was best man at our wedding. I know how Betty will miss him. I wish we could have come by to visit when we were in Arkansas at Rosemary's funeral in September, but Mark had pressing business at home. I know that Quinton is being comforted by our Lord. You, Betty, and Stephen, are in my thoughts and prayers, Leah.
