Helen Quinn Obituary

Helen Dobson Quinn, 86, of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, formerly of Clearwater, Florida, passed away peacefully on August 20, 2025. Helen was born on October 20, 1938, in London, England, to Raymond and Lucy Dobson. She worked for many years as a Property Manager and was admired for her diligence and care for others. Helen found joy in reading, knitting, and sewing, and she shared her gifts generously with family and friends. She was also deeply involved in Unity Church, where she loved to sing, worship, and be in fellowship with her community. She was preceded in death by her father, Raymond; her mother, Lucy; and her sister, Billie. Helen is survived by her loving husband, Arthur Quinn; her daughter, Karina Rizk, and son-in-law, David; her cherished grandchildren, Julian and Alexis; her brother and sister in law, Anthony and Janet Dobson; her stepdaughters, Sandy and Michelle; as well as her nieces Karan, Joanna, Tammy, Julie, Jennifer, and nephews Jonathan, Jasper, Andrew, and Shaun. Helen will be laid to rest with her mother and sister in Lancashire, England, where her family will honor her life and memory. She will be remembered for her warmth, kindness, and gentle spirit, and deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
