A graduate of Catholic High School-New Iberia and Millsaps College, Quinn excelled in his studies and was looking forward to the study, practice and service of medicine. He was a gifted athlete and played basketball for Episcopal School of Acadiana, Catholic High School-New Iberia, Louisiana Select Nike Travel Team, and Millsaps College. He loved music, fraternity life, spending time at the family camp at Toledo Bend, his dog Ziva, and a good beer. Above all, he loved his family and Amanda. One of Quinns coaches describes him as a mix of wit, intelligence, personal charm & sweet jump shot. His friends write of his humility, genuine spirit, infectious passion for life, and his presence that could turn silent rooms into the best time they ever had. His family will always remember him as a big-hearted young man, whose goofiness, sensitivity and kindness blessed them every day.

All funds will go to provide counseling services to those who cannot afford them.
