Bill was born September 15, 1937 in Cherokee County, South Carolina to James Luther and Jenny Lynd (Whiteside) Quinn. After graduating high school in Blacksburg, South Carolina he joined the U.S. Air Force, stationed at Carswell A.F.B. in Fort Worth. He met his wife Martha Ellen Iker and started a family.

Our father, grandfather (PawPaw) and great grandpa will truly be missed. His home was always a refuge for his sons and some struggling friends. He was affectionately known as Uncle Bill. His southern gentleman charm and quick witty quotes kept many folks entertained throughout his travels all over.

He is survived by three sons, William A. (Billy) Quinn, Mark David Quinn and Jeff D. Quinn; grandchildren, Heidi L. Burks, Laura Q. Downey, Lukas Quinn and Anna Quinn, both of Germany; great grandchildren, Blake, Jacquelyn, Ian and Ruthellen; great-great grandchildren, Aubrey and Mason.

Bill will be reunited with his wife of 48 years, Martha, along with his son Kevin D. Quinn.
