The Search and Rescue Teams of Warren County mourn the loss of Quint Reiff, one of our newer members who added so much to our team. In addition to Quint's extensive outdoor knowledge, we will miss his friendliness, generosity and willingness to assist in whatever needed to be done for the team and on call outs. Quint's upbeat personality and his ready smile were always welcomed at searches, training and meetings..
