Best Band director & trumpet teacher I ever had. Played 2nd chair 1st trumpet in the HHS Band and "ride chair" in the HHS dance band. He pushed me to be better than I ever dreamed. Great teacher and became a good friend as well.
Enjoyed every minute with Mr. Qualkinbush in band at HHS. He will be greatly missed.D Deavours
Mr Qualkinbush was such an influence and an example of leadership in my young life in the band at HHS. He saw potential in me that I didn't know I had to be in the Concert Band as a freshman oboe player and to become drum majorette in the Marching Band. I will always remember him.
Rip.
Enjoyed watching him as he lead the HHS band. Enjoy yourself as you conduct Heavens band.
It was a pleasure to have Mr. Qualkinbush as my band teacher.He was a Great Instructor. My deepest sympathy.
Best band memories include Mr.Q.HHS 1982
For many, he was a doorway into instrumental music.
HHS graduate of 1969. I remember Mr. Q like it was yesterday. Although I didn't play in his band, I was a pom pom girl and thoroughly enjoyed the football games when we marched on the field and our band played. It was awesome. A favorite memory of mine and well as Mr. Q. He had such passion and commitment for music and his students. My condolences to family and friends. RIP Mr. Q.
Mr. Qualkinbush was my band director from 1972 thru 1975. I have many fond memories of Concert Band, Stage Band and Marching Band. My favorite memories are being chosen to be Majorette in Marching Band and our road trips for Stage Band.Your legacy will live on Mr. Qualkinbush, may you rest in peace.
