Mark Quinn passed away at his home on Wednesday Jan. 7 at age 56.
Mark was born in Fort Lee, Virginia as the only child of Lew and Char Quinn. He is survived by his son, Brady, his ex-wife, Sherry, his father Lew, and his Aunt Kathy. Mark grew up in rural, upstate New York, attended college at WashU in St. Louis, and came to California in the early 80's. Mark was passionate about dogs, sports, and coaching - especially basketball. He coached hundreds of kids in the Lamorinda area over the past 13 years, including his son, Brady. Mark, Sherry and Brady carried on as a special, connected family even through separation; Brady and Sherry will always cherish the times they spent with Dad/Mark.
A celebration of his life was held on Sunday, Jan. 25 in the gym at Lafayette Elementary School.
