Quinn Kesler Holden Utah Obituary: NFR Switchender and Rodeo worker has died tragically at 30
Quinn Kesler Obituary: On February 26, 2024, Quinn Kesler, who was thirty years old and had qualified for the National Finals Rodeo three times, passed away. His wife, Jessie, and their daughter, Quincy, as well as his mother, Allyson Baker, his father, Greg, and his stepmother, Kaylynn, as well as his brother, Landon, and his sisters, Camille, Nicole, Lindsay, and Hailey, continue to mourn his passing.
As a frequent switchender, Kesler, who was from Holden, Utah, was a member of the select club of ten guys who had both headed and heeled at the National Finals Rodeo (NFR).
During the 2016 season, he was the first to qualify, and he won both Rounds 3 and 7 with two-time World Champion Matt Sherwood. During the 2018 Finals, Kesler served as Rhen Richard’s heel, and the team finished sixth in the average.
Quinn Kesler Debut
2019 was the year that Kesler made the switch to the head side, and 2021 was the year that he headed the NFR for Joseph Harrison. There were multiple PRCA Wilderness Circuit titles on both ends of Kesler’s career, which collectively earned him a total of $600,829 in prize money.
In addition, he has won the National Western Stock Show and Rodeo in Denver, the Snake River Stampede in Nampa, Idaho, the Magic Valley Stampede in Filer, Idaho, the Silver State Stampede in Elko, Nevada, and a great number of other prestigious competitions throughout his career. All of the jackpots that were the largest in the country were won by Kesler, who roped at both ends.
At the Riata Buckle’s Pro Futurity, which took place not too long ago, Kesler and his longtime buddy and partner Colby Siddoway received the sixth spot in the average.
If information regarding Quinn Kesler’s passing and funeral services becomes accessible, The Team Roping Journal will promptly announce any new developments. The qualifiers for the Ariat World Series of Team Roping, which are being staged by Kesler’s Double Dollar Livestock, will proceed as scheduled in March.

Quinn. I watched you fall a flight of stairs while eating an onion blossom, and you reminded me it was okay to laugh at you anyway… So I sat and laughed with you. You helped me win team ropings no matter how “the steer was handled”. You always entered with me, even if I wasn’t the ideal pick. Before your first NFR, we won the last “practice” jackpot you entered before you took a swing in the Thomas and Mack. You said, “if you could win behind me, the T&M would be a piece of cake”. I was there to celebrate your first-round win, And you welcomed me on the gold buckle stage with you. We celebrated all night, even though I had to work the next morning. You thought of me at times when I needed a friend and didn’t even know it at the time. Thanks for the memories, pal. Saying we’ll miss you down here is an understatement. We’ll see ya at the next one Hug your loved ones a little tighter. Big hugs and bigger prayers to the Kesler fam “People have been asking about how to help… instead of flowers, please send any donations to Jessie’s Venmo. @Jessie-HodsonKesler”
