ANDERSON, S.C. -- Quincy O. Waters, age 83, of Anderson, went home to be with the Lord on Tuesday, July 2, 2019, at Rainey Hospice House.
Born in Statesboro, Ga., on March 27, 1936, he was the son of the late Willie S. Waters and Julia Brannen Waters.
He served in the United States Air Force during the Korean Conflict.
Mr. Waters was employed with State Farm Insurance for 50 years.
He was a member of GraceView Church, where he taught Sunday school and served as elder.
Mr. Waters loved the Lord and served Him through many mission ventures, home and foreign.
He was also a math teacher, counselor and basketball coach at Adrian High School. His goal was not just to teach basketball skills, but to build a legacy of teaching these boys to become men!
