Jeffrey Wayne Quinn

Jeffrey "Jeff" Wayne Quinn, 64, passed away on Tuesday, July 11, 2023 in Beaverton, OR. Jeff was born the youngest of four children to Mildred Pezel and Charles Quinn on Sept. 28, 1958 in Portland, OR. Jeff began his working years with the local post office, but found his true calling and joy helping others when he started a landscaping business with his best friend since the 4th grade, Al Liebertz. He later took on an additional career serving his community in a very meaningful way as a TriMet LIFT driver.

Jeff and Mary were happily married for 23 years. During these wonderful years, Jeff and Mary adopted their first child, Jeffrey Ir., in December of 1989. They welcomed their twin son and daughter, Brian and Andrea, in August of 1994. The family grew again with the addition of son, Johnny, in October of 1999. The family had a number of cats and dogs that brought much joy and responsibility. Jeff took on many important titles during his life including: husband, friend, coach, business owner, confidant, giver, listener, and "grandma," but his most cherished roles were those of father and grandfather. Jeff had a smile and laugh that made any room shine brighter, and this joy most radiated through how proud he was of his kids and grandkids. He never missed games or scout camps. He loved attending all of his daughter's horse events. Holidays and birthdays were extremely important to him, and it was so clear just how special he thought you were on your big days... and every day in-between. Jeff had the largest heart you could encounter and gave everything he had including his time and effort. His support and generosity are unmatched. Jeff left an immense impact on so many, and his memories will live on through the lives he touched.

Jeff is preceded in death by his parents: Mildred and Charles, and many beloved pets. He is survived by his children: Jeffrey Quinn Jr. (Erin Quinn), Andrea (YaYa) Quinn, Brian Quinn (Carina Walter), and Johnny Quinn, his grandchildren: Jason (JJ) Quinn and Patrick (Paddy) Quinn, and his siblings: Cecilia Quinn, David Quinn (Teresa Quinn), and Sue Quinn.
