Dear Editor: I would like to give a big thank you to Village Councilman, Jason Gonzalez for all the work he has done at our village playground. Not only has he taken a lot of personal time to clean, mow and weed the playground, but he has established a Questa Beautification program which will help clean up our public spaces and roads in Questa. Thank you Jason for your commitment to our community and children.

A Grateful citizen

A message of thanks from Retiring Editor Lou McCall:
Thank you to QEDF, the newspaper staff, and all the community members who showed up to celebrate my retirement and give me a glorious send off.

Thanks especially to El Monte Carlo for hosting the event on May 3, to Frank Rael for the beautiful cake and to Lynn Skall, Emily Wilde, and Dina Coleman who know how to throw a good party! And thank you to Malaquias Rael, Jr. for his continued support in championing Questa Del Rio News.

I know this has been a long goodbye, this should be it! Thank you for your support.

Questa del Rio News has made an emphasis on being a newspaper that represents the community, and during the mass shooting in Red River this Memorial Day Weekend, they have proven that beyond a shadow of a doubt, providing up-to-date information and details without drama or sensationalism. The quality and professionalism of the Questa del Rio News staff was a calm focus in the storm this weekend and I for one am grateful they are part of the community.
