With my late younger brother Brian in happy times back in the 90’s in our 20’s. What a great era! Until I see you again, these memories will help keep me going. Just like this photo, I thank you for so many of them. Love, Your Big Brother ❤️* Brian William Quinlan, February 12, 1977 – May 17, 2025 *Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/
Seeing your headstone for the very first time right now brings this tragedy to a final full circle. In life, through your actions, you believed in me. If you were here, you’d say, “The best is yet to come.” I’m going to move forward with that belief and do my best to fulfill that. I’ll always miss you, little brother, in my heart forever. The show must go on, so let’s get after it together. Love, Your Big Brother ❤️* Brian William Quinlan, February 12, 1977 – May 17, 2025 Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/
Thanks, Gina, for this early little birthday gift, yup…I wore these back in 5th grade when they made their original debut. Putting them on makes me feel a bit younger, LOL!

In a world of followers, don’t be a sheep, be a shepherd. A metaphorical call for independent thought and leadership instead of blindly conforming to the majority. I encourage you to live with purpose, take initiative, and guide others, rather than simply following the crowd. Be unique, be happy, and simply be you.* *Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/
I hadn’t seen my dad in a few years, and after tragically losing my younger brother Brian this past May, I decided it was time to make a Florida trip in September and visit him. He’ll be 83 this November, and the loss of my brother strongly emphasized that life is short. From this point forward, have no regrets. The day before I left, my dad wanted to give me a little something to remember this trip. Along with Pam, we went to this store (that’s Dad sitting behind me wearing his Jungle Bird “Magnum P.I.” shirt), and you had me pick out a shirt. Every time I wear this shirt, Dad, I’ll think of you. It was nice seeing you again. Thanks, Dad. Love you.* *Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/
Throughout my life’s journey, people I’ve met and connected with have often asked me this question over time: who are you? The person. I don’t think I’ve ever done a video “About Me” from my heart about who I really am until now. I think I summed up the truth here this week in a quick 3-minute video clip. Stay blessed, everyone, and remember to be kind. *Taken from: https://www.instagram.com/therealjohnjquinlan/ https://youtu.be/x4tKJu0H7Fs
