Wanda Jean O'Quinn

January 21, 1947 — October 4, 2024

Folkston, GA

Wanda Jean Herrin O'Quinn, 77 of Riverside, passed away Friday (October 4, 2024) in Helena, MT. following an extended illness. 

Born in Brantley County, GA; her parents were Kay Herrin and Bessie Sapp Herrin. She is also preceded in death by her husband Charles O’Quinn, and brother’s Harry Herrin, David Herrin, and Larry Herrin.

Wanda was a retired nurse and she never stopped taking care of others but most of all she was a loving wife, mother, nana, meme, sister, aunt, and friend to so very many. Her door was always open to those in need, a cup of coffee, a slice of pound cake, a listening ear, and sometimes a gentle hug. No matter what there was always room for one more. She was a rock for so many.
