Such a fine young man who left this world way too soon. You have made an impact on so many. Even those if us you knew you for a brief, fleeting moment. Bless you and bless your family.

My condolences to Jennifer and the Hill family. Quint was such a smart little boy who loved his cars. He grew up to be a fine young man and proudly served his country. I will forever cherish and keep the wonderful memories I have of you in my heart. May you rest in peace.

As someone that has served with Quinton in the Army I'm very heart broken to see this, I hoped this wasn't true when I first heard. During our time at Fort Polk, he was my best friend. We immediately clicked because of our passion and love into cars. We actually ended up getting the same exact cars at the same time. We would work on them together, cruise around together. We shared lots of great memories with the hope of finding eachother again outside of the military. I write this hoping someone from his family sees this and knows he had another family through the Army that cared for him and loved him.

I met Quinton through my fiancé Louie who was his roommate in the Army. Quinton taught Louie so much and I am so grateful for your guys friendship. When Quinton moved to LA we were so excited that we would be able to hang out with him again. I loved introducing you to all the yummy food of LA and you would introduced me to so many cool anime’s. I will love and miss you forever Quinton Wymbs.

You were one of the good guys , pure hearted a blast to be around and one of the best human beings I had the pleasure of serving with . I’ll never forget the night I met you driving the chaser , watching you stall and keep trying to learn in the barracks parking lott then came up to you one of the most humble people ever and immediately offered me a chance to sit and drive your new car right off the bat . Shared the same passion of cars gave me my first “oh crap” moment in a turbo Miata sliding on post without a care in the world . Gonna miss you man many prayers and loves out to the family through all of this .

Quinton, goodbye brother. I’ll always remember my first time listening to the teriyaki boys in your chaser, or seeing you and Bereznicki working outside and asking you dumb questions cause I didn’t know a thing about cars. Thanks for being patient. I hope that they have tracks in heaven man. We’ll miss you.

I didn't want to believe the news when i heard it and while i didn't know you for as long as a lot of the other guys you knew here at Polk, you were one of the few dudes who i had any sort of connection or friendship with through our shared intrest in cars and music. You put me onto some great music and i enjoyed the time we shared together from talking cars to you kicking my butt in super smash bros. I'm gonna miss you bro. Wish it didn't end like this and I'm sorry for your family's loss. Hope you are smiling down on all of us. Thoughts and prayers to the family. Rest easy Wymbs.

Quinton I miss you. I'm sorry I'm just finding out now. Every moment with you was a blast, since when I first sat next to you in sophomore science and we started talking about video games. Thank you for sharing your love of cars with me. Thank you for helping broaden my taste in music. And thank you for your years of friendship. From me and all they boys from Campus. We love you, and we'll never forget you.

He was a great friend of mine in middle school and through out high school. When I first met him he was very quiet just like me. We made a great connection when we became friends during track and field. I remember we’d joke about him buying 10 snicker bars before his race started. I would always sit with him during lunch with all of our buddies just laughing about the dumbest thing we could think of during high school. It hurts to see this happen to him and his family. You will be miss buddy and you will be loved.
