Dear Quinn Family, Our deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your Wife & mother. I felt honored to know her.She will be missed.

January 22, 2007

Floy was a blessing to Bill and her wonderful family! Most of whom I have never met but most I have always heard of, for the 50+ years of my life. I have some pictures of railroad trips, boat trips, many trips our parents took at younger times! Compliments of my parents, Ginger and Shelley Walsh. I know they have sent their sympathies and I was a little perturbed that they didn't call me to tell me the news. Thank you to the Norton's for the email. And condolences to all of the Quinn's, especially Mr. Quinn, the Norton's, the Moore's (Michael and his wife), and all the other Quinn family members. We have you all in our prayers.

Sincerely,
Betsy Walsh McCarthy

The death of Floy regenerates the many wonderful memories as a next door neighbor in St. Paul, Mn. She was a beautiful lady in all ways as were her siblings and her husband and children.Floy was a class act. A Mass will be offered in her memory at the Immaculate Heart of Mary church in St. Paul where she and Bill worshipped.

I'm sure my sister, Joan (Loban) and brother, George join me in sending condolences to our cousin Bill,as well as to his entire family.

So many memories but of course the early days and the wedding of Bill and Floy are still fresh in my mind. On the occasion of Bill's 70th birthday I commented to his Mother, my Aunt Celina, that it must really be something to have a 70 year old son. Her response had something to do with not taking kindly of being reminded of her age!

The children, the grandchildren and great grandchildren are fortunate in having a Quinn-Heinen legacy to guide them.

Both Louise and I express our deepest sympathies on the loss of your wife and mother. She was a great mother as shown by how her children grew up. You will be in our prayers this weekend as she is now in heaven helping St. Peter to reorganize the establishment while pollishing the counter in the kitchen.
