I was very shocked to hear of your untimely passing. You’ve always said “hi” or “good morning” to me and my husband every time you saw us at our lockers. You’ve always had a big heart and smile…we will never forget you. Seeing your locker at work this morning (it was next to mines) was very hard. I don’t know what else to say but it has been a pleasure knowing and working with you. My condolences are with your friends and family during this most difficult time. R.I.P. Q.
