Theo Quinlan

Theo Robert Quinlan was born in Harris, NY on January 30, 2024, and was called home to God on December 23, 2025. In his brief time on earth, Theo filled the lives of those around him with pure joy, love, and light; leaving a mark far greater than his years.

Theo was a happy and gentle soul. His days were filled with smiles, laughter, and wide-eyed curiosity. He rarely fussed and had a way of bringing calm and comfort simply by being near. Theo delighted in watching Ms. Rachel, spending time outdoors, and exploring the world with wonder and innocence. His sweet presence brightened every room, and his joyful spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved him.

Theo is lovingly survived by his parents, Jonathan Quinlan and Amber Watch; his cherished older brother, Jonathan Jr.; his maternal grandmother, Lisa Watch; his paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Quinlan; and her husband, Joe Rodriguez, whom Theo adored and lovingly knew as his grandpa. He is also survived by his paternal uncle, Aaron Quinlan, along with many great-aunts, great-uncles, and cousins who treasured him deeply.

Theo was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Robert "Bobby" Watch, with whom he is now reunited in heaven, and by his paternal grandfather, Julio Lozado.

To offer condolences and pay final respects, a wake will be held at Colonial Memorial Funeral Home 396 State Route 52, Woodbourne, NY 12788. Viewing will take place on Saturday, January 3rd, from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

Though Theo's life was short, his love was limitless. He will always be remembered for his bright smile, gentle laughter, and the joy he brought so freely to those around him.

"But Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'" - Matthew 19:14
