Walter Eugene Quinley Jr., 68, of Daphne passed away Sunday, Dec. 15, 2013.

He was a retired machine operator from Kimberly-Clark with 31 years of service.

Not only was Dickey an avid reader, he was also a skilled craftsman who could build or repair anything — a real jack of all trades.

He loved his family and will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, "Pop," and friend.

Surviving are his loving wife of 48 years, Ann Wiggins Quinley; two daughters, Kimberly Ann (Steve) Mullins and Kerry Quinley (Ken) Wallace; three grandsons, Cole, Luke Mullins and Hudson Wallace; and other relatives and friends.

The family will receive friends to celebrate Dickey’s life Thursday, Dec. 19, 2013, from 5:30 until 7:30 p.m., at Hughes Funeral Home in Daphne.

Abiding by Dickey’s desire, his body was given for medical research.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made to The Friends of the Daphne Public Library, P.O. Drawer 1225, Daphne, AL  36526.
