CELEBRATING THE LIFE OF AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN
MR. OUINTIN SINCLAIR UPSHIRE
WHEREAS, on Wednesday, February 7, 2018, Quintin Sinclair Upshire also known as Quincy was called home by the Great I AM. The Lord beckoned Quincy, "Come for I have prepared a place specifically for thee, a mansion the size of a small city where you can cut hair in the east wing, create dope t-shirts for my Angels in the West Wing and as you walk down the hallway you will find photographs of every person's heart that you have touched." Instantly a tear drop fell from his eyes and Quincy's soul immediately connected with Jesus; and
WHEREAS, Quintin Sinclair Upshire was a man that was determined to lead his household by faith, he stood flat-footed on the principles of integrity and purpose and was always ready to express his sincere compassion and love for his faithful wife, Utopia Alexis Upshire to this world in which God has allotted us all to live in; and
WHEREAS, some people will remember Quincy for the way he cut their hair, his hearty laugh and one-million dollar smile. While, so many others recognized the calling on his life and many sat under his tutelage about the Agape Love, Grace and Mercy of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Quintin Sinclair Upshire was never ashamed to share the Gospel in any way the Lord led him to do so; and
WHEREAS, the bible says, "A good man's steps are ordered by the Lord." Without a shadow of doubt in my mind, I know Quincy lived his life according to the Word, of God. Though, life threw him a few tough blows, maybe even cost him some sleepless nights, no matter the difficulties, Quintin Sinclair Upshire stayed the straight and narrow course. Quincy was a Warrior in the Spirit, a true Intercessor and a man that had a vision and made it plain before the people of God on a consistent basis. Quintin Sinclair Upshire was a bold and courageous young man that was not afraid of invading the enemy's camp and drawing soldiers to Christ. We can all attest to the fact that Quincy was called to serve and everything he did, Quincy did it very well; and
WHEREAS, at this moment, I speak with great confidence, when I say, "Quintin Sinclair Upshire also known as Quincy name meant much more than your average name." Every letter in his first name stood for something: He was the Quintessence of a Biblical Scholar. Unique and set apart for a specific assignment, . Intentionally dedicated his life to serving his wife and the Lord with every breath he took. Necessary to be among those that serve within the Kingdom, Teachable without resistance. Intelligent beyond one's imagination and Naturally gifted to serve in areas that others would have refused to enter; and
WHEREAS, today, let us not say good-bye but instead stand together and say, Lord we are grateful for your very presence even in the midst of our tears and deep-rooted sorrow. We desire nothing more than to give you Glory for the life of Quintin Sinclair Upshire. Father, it is our hope to please you even now above all others. We ask Lord that you teach us how to love you and follow your instructions as Quincy taught us through his own life. Though, we wished and prayed that this day would not exist, we know that one day we shall meet him once again; and
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Mayor and the members of City Council will gather together on Wednesday, February 28,2018, A.D., to express their sincere condolences and prayers for his wife, Utopia Alexis Upshire and every other family member, friend, business partner, and associate of Quintin Sinclair Upshire.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this resolution was prepared by 21st Ward Alderman Howard B. Brookins, Jr., and a more suitable copy will be presented to the family of Quintin Sinclair Upshire at. a later date.
Howard B. Brookins, Jr. Alderman - 21st Ward
