Cortwright's obituary

In Loving Memory of Reverend Dr. G Cortwright Quinland

December 28, 1951— February 9, 2026

A Journey of Faith and Ambition

Reverend Dr. Quinland’s life was a testament to the power of faith and the pursuit of a better life. Born on the vibrant island of Antigua, he was a young man driven by a spirit of adventure and a search for new opportunities. This journey first led him to the shores of St. Croix, where he became a familiar face at the renowned St. Croix by the Sea.

Seeking to build a lasting foundation for his wife and children, he eventually moved his family to the United States, settling in Houston, Texas. It was here that he truly rooted his life’s work in the service of others and the Word of God.

A Life Dedicated to the Ministry

His spiritual journey was marked by rigorous study and a calling to lead. He was first ordained at the City of Light Bible College, a path that led him to Providence Missionary Baptist Church. There, he was both licensed and ordained, becoming a pillar of the congregation.

Never one to stop learning, he reached the pinnacle of his academic and spiritual pursuits by earning his Doctorate in Biblical Studies from Liberty University. His life was a living sermon of perseverance and devotion.
