Carol Jean (Mick) Quinn, 83 years of age, of Oxford, passed away on Monday, December 31, 2018, at CHI- Health Good Samaritan in Kearney, Nebraska, surrounded by family. She was born July 16, 1935 at the Chase County Hospital in Imperial, Nebraska, the eldest of two children born to Harold Eugene and Phillis G. (VanDyke) Mick. She received her primary education at Enders Public School in Enders, Nebraska and then attended Chase County High School in Imperial, graduating with the class of 1954. Carol had one sister, Sherrill Ann Mick, who was born on March 10, 1938 with whom she was very close. The girls spent a lot of time at their grandparents, Pearl and Faye Browning’s farm, west of Enders and in Stratton, Nebraska at Grandma and Grandpa VanDykes. As a child, she also enjoyed camping at the Enders Lake; vacationing in the Colorado Rocky Mountains; riding in the semi with her father; and playing softball with friends. At a young age, Carol developed her faith through attending Sunday school and church. In high school, she was a member of the Chase County Drill Team and enjoyed going to baseball, football and basketball games; basketball being her favorite. She also enjoyed going to movies, roller skating and cruising around with her girlfriends. Upon graduation, she started working at the Ender’s Café, where she met the love of her life, Willard “Duane” Quinn. They were united in marriage on February 6, 1955 in Enders at the Church of Brethren. The family made their home in Oxford, where she worked at the local Dairy Queen. On August 12, 1956, the first of their five children were born, James Eugene Quinn. Shortly after, Robert Duane Quinn was born on August 17, 1957. Carol was a stay at home mom, nurturing her boys, sewing and cooking. On December 19, 1959, their third son was born, Michael Joe Quinn. Next came their only daughter, Janis Renee “Sis” Quinn, born on February 20, 1961. On December 6, 1968, Patrick J. “P.J.” Quinn was born and their family was complete. She remained a stay at home mother, opening her home to other’s children and babysitting. As Carol’s children grew older, she went to work outside of the home as a Custodial Specialist at the local Post Office. She was employed there from 1978 until 2011. Carol treasured this job, as it kept her connected with “all the people” in Oxford. As a family, Carol, Duane, and their children enjoyed: flying kites, picnicking, fishing and boating at the Harlan County Lake; many adventures at the Republican River; stock car races in Nebraska and Kansas; softball, football and basketball games; and lots of time visiting relatives and friends. One of her greatest passions was cooking and baking for family and friends. Fried Chicken and potato salad were her favorites to prepare for others to enjoy. Carol was also known for having a green thumb. She enjoyed gardening, planting flowers, nurturing her house plants and collecting dolls, spoons and roosters. She was known to have a “shoe fetish”; on every shopping trip, buying at least one pair of shoes to accentuate her youthful sense of style. Carol had a knack for removing stubborn stains; her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren turned to her for any and all of her home remedies and comforting advice. Her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were her greatest treasures in life. Carol was very passionate about others sending cards, letters, words of encouragement, news and updates. Her acts of love and kindness truly resonated with others. Carol was active in her community.
