Quinten was born May 21, 2009, in Abilene to Brett and Lacey (Stephens) Siegfried. He attended school in Clyde and Baird and was a member of Bethel Assembly in Anson. Quinten was an amazing young man that touched the lives of many people. He could light up a room with his contagious smile! He loved big and was always a protector of his siblings, and always will be. He was an amazing son, brother, and friend to all that knew him. Quinten never put himself first, and always stood up for the weak. Quinten loved the Lord with all his heart and trusted Him even through his toughest battles. Quinten was a fighter and had the spirit of a warrior that allowed him to fight until his last day on earth. Quinten loved to fish, hunt, play sports, cook, and spend quality time with his family. Quinten will live through us all until the day we meet again.
