Kind words from Tom’s previous students

- His kindness to us, his students and drama club members, is what made him stand out as one of our most beloved teachers. 

- TQ taught me the greatest lesson of all in that little mini auditorium in the 140 hallway. Never take life too seriously, there is funny in everything! 

- Mr Quinlan was such a lovely man, a soul bigger than life and he always made time for his students, of which I was one of the multitude (but never made to feel that way).

- I hear his booming voice reading poetry to the angels! A wonderful teacher and a wonderful man. I always sat in the front of his class so I didn't miss a thing. 

- He was my favorite teacher, mentor and advocate. I think of him every time I read a poem. Rest in peace, good sir and thank you for believing in me when I couldn’t.
