My little brother Brian’s funeral mass eulogy on May 30, 2025, at Most Blessed Sacrament Parish in Wakefield, Massachusetts. My brother was a great person with a huge heart who would help anyone in need. Gone suddenly and far too soon, I’m going to miss him. Along with my late grandfather, I also mentioned a few special people for their positive impact on my life’s journey with my brother through lasting memories and kind words on his passing. Our late childhood friends John Michael Hughes & Michael Chaffee, along with Kane Hodder and Marc Mero. The church was built in 1933, so the video was set as a retro theme from that era (as the original footage was a bit off). I wish the camera was a bit closer, but I’m still very grateful to have this. The audio had some significant echo and background noise, which was improved a bit for additional clarity, although still not the best. I’ll cherish the good times, all the laughs we had, and remember you for your kindness to others.” – Love always, your big brother Brian William Quinlan, February 12, 1977 – May 17, 2025 https://www.robinsonfuneralhome.com/obituaries/brain-quinlan https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/bostonglobe/name/brian-quinlan-obituary?id=58463824 YouTube: https://youtu.be/2s2QRS_qHTY
3 weeks ago today, my younger brother, Brian, died unexpectedly. I kind of just immersed myself in the gym since then to help cope with all the emotions that have come along with it. 99% has helped me mentally, so I guess the physical bonus is the remaining 1%. PS, I had to replace my phone with this temporary one, a Galaxy A15 from 2023, and the photos aren’t clear. No bueno. *Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/
“It’s been almost 3 weeks since my younger brother died suddenly. It still seems like a dream, that it’s not real. Surreal. I can’t wrap my hands around the idea that he is now gone forever. I’ll never see him again physically in my natural life. Here today, gone tomorrow. No goodbye, just gone in a blink. Many things to me that seemed to matter before his death no longer carry the same importance. Life is fragile. This is sadly one of the most painful reminders of it for me. But the show must go on. So, until I see you on the other side, let’s give it hell. I’m sure you wouldn’t want me to do it any other way. Respect.” – Brian William Quinlan, February 12, 1977 – May 17, 2025 *Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/ ***Photo by Steve Mark
