Deyohateh, will be missed by his aunties, uncles, cousins and friends.
Quinby was a man who lived life at full volume—literally and figuratively. Known for his infectious, booming laughter and his "loud" personality that could light up any room, Quinby never did anything halfway.
An adventurer at heart, he was happiest when he was out exploring the world on two wheels. Whether he was navigating a challenging trail or cruising through city streets, cycling was his freedom. His other great passion was the kitchen. Quinby didn't just cook; he created experiences, delighting in preparing elaborate meals and sharing them with anyone lucky enough to be at his table. He loved to eat as much as he loved to feed others, believing that a good meal was the best way to bring people together.
Above all his adventures, Quinby's greatest love was his family. He shared an unbreakable bond with his mom and dad, Tracy and Frank, and was a fiercely loyal brother to Joshua. He was the heart of every family gathering, leaving behind a legacy of love with his many cousins and his aunties, all of whom he held exceptionally dear.
He will be resting at the Sour Springs Longhouse after 5pm Monday, where Funeral services will take place Tuesday February 10, 2026 at 11am. Burial to follow at Sour springs Longhouse Cemetery.
Hold on to what is good,
Even if it's a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe,
Even if it's a tree that stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do,
Even if it's a long way from here.
Hold on to your life,
Even if it's easier to let go.
Hold on to my hand,
Even if someday I'll be gone away from you
