Quinton Hoover has left us

Post by kalimno » Sat Apr 20, 2013 11:03 am

His son posted on Facebook that Mr. Quinton Hoover has passed away. At this moment I don't think I can put the correct words together to describe how unique a human he was.

Rest in peace Quinton...

Wow, very sad news. He had been really kind and professional when I had the opportunity to deal directly with him.

RIP Quinton.

So sad. May his art on Regeneration guide his way to rebirth in a better place.

I read that earlier and was saddened by the trials and tribulations discussed therein. It really puts it all into perspective for me as I'm 42 and to see someone so young pass, it's a little unnerving.

that article is really priceless, not only as a tribute and introduction to him but as a resource for collectors.

Alexis, is there a place that article could be put for quick reference?

It would be nice to have a special place maybe called "In Memoriam" where such things about Magic icons could be put for quick reference.

I feel that the time is coming when others will be joining Quinton.
