Edward Joseph Quintana

Edward Quintana was loved by many people. He just loved life. He would always say "I had a wonderful life" It is a great sadness,"A life-well-lived". Forever in our hearts. He has so many friendships. He loved them deeply especially in the last two years they would spend quality time with his beloved friends. Which brought great memories, joy and comfort. To be loved by so many. How many of us can say we have been loved with such love?

1 John 4:8 "Love one another", 1 Peter 4:8 "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins".

He served this country in the National Guard. He worked at Gene Taylor's Sporting Good Store for 30 years, He went on to work for Walmart for 16 more years. He was loved and appreciated by management and colleagues. He will be remembered for his sense of humor. He loved watching football. He loved Fishing.

Sadly they passed way too soon!

Sadly all his siblings have gone before him. His brothers, Tony, John, Frankie, Jim Quintana. They are all buried with their parents, John and Arabella Quintana. Now he will be joined with all his beloved family. When we brought Jim and Frankie, "He would say now they are home." They will see each other and what joy is in heaven now!

His surviving family includes his nephew James Quintana, niece Arabella Quintana and his sister-in-law. We can not forget his wonderful adopted family Ed and Michele for all the love they provided Edward. Family is not always about blood. "As the head stone says that Sherri wrote: "I believe that the reason of life is for each of us simply to grow in Love"
