Q Left Us
#46
The last time I rode with him was last 4th of July, rode up to Lake Geneva with him and a few other guys.
Q was rolling a wheelie a few miles outside of Lake Geneva, and we see this 18 wheeler pulling out from some building. Well Q kinda just kept the wheel up till right before the semi, and then finally noticed that all across the side of it in the biggest letters posible, said POLICE
I couldn't believe it, we were laughing about that **** all day, like dam, you couldn't read it.
Had a great day with him then. I saw him again at the Off Limit Extream show in Chicago Heights, but didn't talk to him too much there.
Gonna miss ya bro!!!!!!

Q's big heart
You can tell alot about a person from just their actions and things they would do. Just watching Q at some of the old Loose ****** parties you could tell he loved to be around people and make them laugh even if it meant rippen on himself at times.
I was lucky enough to share some of those times with Q. I remember when DTP passed away Q waited for some people to leave and then started to sing to Danny. I was shocked that Q had a great voice, and started singing in front of everyone. I stood beside him until he was done with tears in my eyes. Then Q did the best thing possible. He gave me a hug and told me it's ok now...Danny was on his bike in a much better place.
Any man who gets up on a very cold December morn. to do Toys For Tots has a huge heart. Q was that man! Being able to do that ride with him was the best. After a while I kind of forgot about how cold it was, and what we were doing this ride for.
I'll still do the Toys For Tots ride this year as hard as it's gonna be with out Q by our side. But this year it'll be a special one. For me it'll be done in the loving memory of Q. RIP

I've carried this in my wallet for years. It's called "The Clowns Prayer". For the past several days I can only think of how fitting this is for Q.
Lord as I stumble through this life, Help me to create more laughter than tears, dispense more happiness than gloom,
spread more cheer than despair.
Never let me grow so big that I will fail to see the wonder in the eyes of a child or the twinkle in the eyes of the aged.
Never let me forget who I am andthat my work is to cheer people up, make them happy, and make them laugh, make them forget, at least for a moment, all the unpleasant things in their lives.
And LORD,
in my final moment, may I hear YOU whisper:
"When you made MY PEOPLE smile, you made ME smile."

I unfortunately did not get the pleasure of meeting Q...But I have heard a lot about him...and I know that he was a close friend of Gregs and will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
My prayers go out to his family and friends!!

Q loved to be the center of attention. You could see it in his eyes. He lite up when people listened to him and laughed or smiled at what he was saying. One of the first times I met Q he invited me back to his crib to hang out and shout the **** with everyone. I had just come on the riding scene. I didnt know very many people and he welcomed me into his house like I was one of the boys. So I went with everyone over to his place. He lived in an apartment in warrenville at the time. So we all ride up and he rides right up the sidewalk. Im thinkin no biggie, if I lived in an apartment id wanna see my bike. Then he rides up to a sliding glass door, gets off, opens the door and proceeds to ride into the living room. Being that I was still new to the scene I was floored. I thought to myself, his neighbors have to hate him! Until I start getting introduced to people there. Half his neighbors were there! They didnt care about the bike, and Q didnt care if any of them did either. Looking back at it now, who cares what other people think of you. Live your life the way that makes you the happiest!!
Q will forever be in my heart, miss you bro. Ill see you on the other side.

Unfortunetly, I was out of town when i got the news of what happend. I had just crossed the border and entered Windsor when my cell rang, and i wasn't even going to pick it up (roaming charges, etc). for some reason i did answer though. i wish i was able to make it to the wake and the mass, but i just got this information right now (i just got back late last night).
i really will miss Q.
