Robert Quirk
OWNER AND CEO
Robert Quirk moved to Sparks, NV at the age of 14 and graduated from Sparks high school in 1977. School had been difficult for him and in his mind was something to be avoided. Growing weary of dead-end jobs and low pay he decided to pursue additional education. His struggles continued, however, and he failed his classes. Not admitting defeat, he repeated the classes again and again until eventually at the age of 23 he experienced his first academic triumph!
Robert met his wife, Danielle Hansen, at a church activity and the two were married in 1984. Struggling to determine which career path to pursue, he decided to take a chance on a trade school. The young couple soon moved to Las Vegas, Nevada where Robert attended the Education Dynamic Institute.
For the first time in his life, he found school could be a place of learning rather than a place of humiliation. He decided on a vocation in heating and air conditioning. After graduation, their first child was born and they decided to move back to Sparks, Nevada where Robert began his career in the heating and air conditioning field.
By 1993 with four small children to support, he acquired his contractor’s license, left a stable job as a service technician and with nothing more than an old, red Chevy van, (and filled with useful confidence and a dream of owning their own business), Lincoln Heating & Air began. The challenges of raising a young family and starting a business were truly difficult, the office was nothing more than a kitchen table, and the struggle continued for years. But with Roberts’s strong work ethic and devotion to family an example of a true American success story became a reality.
The business grew each year and became successful. While life does not always allow perfect balance between work and family Robert sees his greatest accomplishments in his six children who are proud to call him their father. “The sacrifices of the business to raise my son and daughters have been worth it.
Growth of the company may have been delayed in some respects but I have no regrets as the rapid growth of my young children never slowed. “Robert’s priority has always been as husband and father as he worked to build a successful company. “It has been my biggest challenge in life to balance work and family but I have no regrets. Hard work pays off.” Today Robert also has 6 grandchildren who call him Papa.
