———

Our father, grandfather and great-grandfather, John Allan Quinn passed away Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023, at the age of 89.

John was born April 27, 1934, to John and Rosalie Quinn in Jersey City, N.J. He was the oldest of four children. He attended William L. Dickenson High School in Jersey City and joined the U.S. Air Force after graduation. He met his future wife, Theresa Hasenoehrl while stationed at Fairchild Air Force Base in Spokane. They married April 21, 1956, at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church. The couple made their home in Woodbridge, N.J., after John was discharged from military service where they raised four children, Steven, Christine, John and Matthew. John worked in the industrial security industry for 20 years.

The couple returned to Theresa’s home on Mission Creek in 1976. John worked as an electrician for the Lewiston School District for nearly 20 years and retired in 1999. He enjoyed bowling, golf, hunting and riding his ATV. John was an avid reader all his life and would finish many books every week.

John is survived by his sister, Patricia Kane (Tommy) of Avenel, N.J., children, Christine Quinn of Coeur d’Alene, John D. (Becky) Quinn of Post Falls and Matthew A. (Michelle) of Lewiston; daughter-in-law Charlotte Quinn of Medical Lake, Wash.; grandchildren Melanie, Kimberly, Cory, Gabrielle, Kalin and Brendon and great-granddaughter Camila.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Theresa, siblings Robert and Eileen and his son, Steven.

The family would like to extend their deep gratitude and appreciation to the St. Joe’s intensive care unit staff for their extraordinary care and kindness during this difficult time.
