My daughter Charlee Lawrence loved Mr. Quinn as her teacher at St. Michael Academy. He was always so happy, upbeat and funny. I loved talking with to him about sports. He knew stats by memory and could talk for hours about different types of sports. He will be missed by all. RIP

JP and I met at Siena College, and I was immediately drawn to by his wit, charm, and intelligence. I was naïve and gullible at 19 years old, but JP could tell a story with such confidence that I always believed it to be true. I’ve thought of JP often over the years since Siena—imagining I might see him at a baseball game or as a contestant on Jeopardy! I am so incredibly sad to hear that JP has passed. He was always so full of life when I knew him. We will miss you.

JP retained more sport stats than anyone I've ever met in my life. Where did he store this information??? Who knows! He was the funniest, wittiest, sharpest person I've known as well. I was happy to have known him since we were kids, growing up and sharing all the big family events together . You will be greatly missed JP❤️
