Maureen was born April 9, 1950, in Los Angeles, CA. to Dr. William E. and Mary "Jane" Quinn. She spent her first 7 years in Arcadia, CA., where she attended Annunciation School. In 1958, the family relocated to West Covina, CA. when her father joined the staff of Intercommunity Hospital. Maureen attended St. John's Catholic School in Baldwin Park, CA. up through the 8th grade and then attended West Covina High School.
Maureen was quite a gifted and well-rounded athlete. She excelled in the sport of swimming and as a pre-teen, enjoyed practicing her high diving skills in the Olympic size swimming pool at South Hills Country Club. She was also a very talented artist, learning to oil paint at a very early age. At the age of 17, Maureen earned her cosmetology license and worked very hard the next 40+ years in that field and, once again, excelled at what she did. Maureen was quite an accomplished cook and especially enjoyed fixing holiday meals for friends and family. Maureen had a tender heart for animals and never turned away a cat or dog in need. If she couldn't provide a home for a stray, she'd find someone who could.
Maureen is survived by her younger sister Charlene and her older brother Michael as well as several nieces and nephews and a host of friends. She was predeceased by only a few months by her younger brother, Patrick and many years ago by her parents. She leaves behind her beloved doggy, Rascal.
