Anthony Badger Quinn, a well-respected judge and keen legal mind, died Thursday, October 24, 2013 in Salt Lake City. He was sixty. Tony, an avid cyclist, was killed by a distracted driver while riding his bike up Millcreek Canyon.
Tony was born September 9, 1953 in Fort Belvore, Virginia to Horace and Alice Quinn. The youngest of eight in a quintessentially military family, Tony spent his childhood in Greenwich, Connecticut before settling in Bountiful, Utah.
After serving an LDS mission in Denmark, Tony completed a BA in History at BYU, where he subsequently enrolled in the J. Reuben Clark Law School. Perhaps most importantly, law school provided the context in which Tony met Drew Barton, the love of his life and eternal companion.
Following graduation, Tony clerked for Judge David Winder in the District of Utah federal court, an experience that would later inspire him to become a judge. He then became a distinguished civil litigator, especially enjoying his years working with his older sister, Mary Ann Wood, at Wood, Quinn and Crapo.
Governor Mike Leavitt appointed him to the Third District Court bench in 1997. As a judge, he always strove tirelessly to be fair and be prepared. Despite his disciplined and hard-working persona, he was always quick with a joke, kind and generous to those who knew him well.
As much as Tony enjoyed legal work, his favorite pastime was cycling. Tony was an incredibly dedicated athlete. He trained year-round with an eye toward LoToJa, which he completed seventeen and ½ times. He was severely injured at LoToJa in 2012, but defied expectations (and doctor's orders) to complete another 200 mile race just seven months later.
A stalwart defender of the law, a loving father, and a doting grandfather, Tony influenced many people. He is survived by his wife, Drew; his three children, John, Tom (Kati), and Analise (Mac); one grandchild, Ira Anthony; and seven brothers and sisters. He is preceded in death by his parents.
Funeral services will be held on Saturday, November 2, 2013 at 12:00 p.m. in the Olympus Stake Center, 4500 South 2700 East. Friends are invited to visit with the family on Friday, November 1, 2013 from 5:00-8:00 p.m. at Holbrook Mortuary, 3251 South 2300 East, and at the church on Saturday from 10:30-11:30 a.m. prior to the services.
Interment will be in the Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park.
