Quinn Konitzer, 17, Abrams, tragically chose to leave us on Wednesday evening, November 28, 2012 while at home. The youngest of two children was born March 7, 1995 to Troy and April (Lersch) Konitzer. Quinn attended Abrams Elementary School before going to Washington Middle School in Oconto Falls and was currently a senior at Oconto Falls High School.

Quinn enjoyed numerous hobbies, many self taught, and sharing his many talents with family and friends including playing the ukulele and guitar, social gaming, producing videos with his close cousins and RC Racing with his Dad. He also enjoyed snowmobiling, deer hunting and fishing with his Dad and Grandpas. He was a member of St. Maximilian Kolbe Catholic Church in Sobieski where he was confirmed this past spring. As Facebook is assuring those who knew him, Quinn will be fondly remembered for being "all in" on whatever project or situation he was part of and lighting up a room with his smile. One of his greatest talents was his ability to rally students at OFHS at athletic events and other activities.

Those left to mourn his untimely death include his parents, Troy and April Konitzer, Abrams; his sister, Paige Konitzer, a student at UWGB; his paternal grandmother, "Cookie" Konitzer, Abrams; maternal grandmother, Sally Lersch, Suamico; his paternal great grandmother, Lorraine Brokiewicz, Pulaski; his aunts and uncles, Tim (Shannon) Konitzer and Amy (Don) Demeny, all of Abrams; Chris (Sue) Lersch, Green Bay; Matthew (Shannon Lord) Lersch, Seattle, WA; his Konitzer cousins, Logan, Evan, Justan and Brendan; Cole and Drew (Demeny); his Lersch cousins, Anna and Abby; Emily, Veronica and Danielle; numerous other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his cousin, Nathan Lersch, maternal grandfather, Donald Lersch and paternal grandfather, "Farmer John" Konitzer.
