Anyway, in the past thirty years from 1983 I kept seeing Robert over and over again in the University District, but I did not introduce myself until about 2011, when it turned out that Robert and I both knew (codename) "Contessa", about whom I had written a story on Usenet.. I started giving Robert my New York Times here at the Eigerwand coffee shop, as it was called back in the day when I was a UW student, but now it is called the Cafe Solstice. When I spent the first week of June 2013 here at the Solstice, I asked Contessa where Robert was, and she told me that Robert had passed away. Now on the Internet I am finding out the enormous amount of good that Robert Quinn did for hundreds and hundreds of people. Rest in peace, Robert.

Bob and I even rejected the same graduate program as pretentious and irrelevant. I wish we could have become colleagues. I believe we can prevent addiction, suicide, murder-suicide, abuse, war, and oppression if we discover how to truly help people heal from early trauma and deficits in nurturing and if we can get counseling to parents who have suffered these things. How about a memorial fund in Bob's name for that purpose? I don't remember if I showed him In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts by Dr. Gabor Mate' of BC, Canada, or just wanted to, but I think now how appropriate it might have been for them to know each other, work together. Though I didn't know Bob long, I feel deep sorrow.

I've been thinking of these songs by Jackson Browne and Bob Dylan: "Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him long / And when I stood myself beside him, I never felt I was as strong / Still it seems he stopped his singing in the middle of his song..."
"Come all without, come all within / You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn" Peace.

He was a really great guy.

I felt really sad seeing him in September and October, carrying a sleeping back attached to his back pack, and didn't want to ask him about his situation, if he was homeless, or what not. He seemed like he just didn't have a lot of life in him, and his hair noticeably more unkempt.

He changed and touched the lives of so many people, while at the same time he was a very private person.

There was a mention of a manuscript of his life story, and I hope that ends up being published.

I made a donation to this needle exchange, but I am hoping there can be a more meaningful memorial, planting a small garden on the ave in his memory, or adding a park bench.

Funny to hear him described as cantankerous and such - he was never that way with me. He was patient and kind with my dumbass 20-something self-centered self.

I used to sit with him and Harris now & again in front of Tower Records and watch him offer clear-sighted compassion & understanding to those in need. I learned so much from him. It saddens me to no end that he died feeling alone and despairing.

RIP, Bob Quinn. Your death fills me with sorrow. I hope you and Harris and Moose are walking together and enjoying the sun in Fiddler's Green.

He befriended a stray cat, Shante, at the time. From the sounds of previous stories here, that was the beginning of his owning a pet who bonded with him. He'd lie on the floor of our TV room eating his vegetarian meal with Shante right by his side. Shante would often ride around the house on his shoulder somewhere under Bob's mane of hair.

Rest in peace, Bob, gentle spirit. You have left your mark here.

My heart goes out to all of you who knew Bob and saw him in the district on a daily-basis. That alley always has been cold and lonely in the early mornings, but even more so now with out that familiar face to greet us...

There are tentative plans to have a memorial and celebration of Bob's life at Cafe Allegro in the coming week, but to my current knowledge there is no official date set. As soon as I have all the information, I will be sure to post a comment here.

Love,

J.Barista

Next time you eat a cookie or some noodles think of him.
