Ironwood St., Quartzsite P��� 31 Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.” - Thomas Jefferson Just Rambling... by Elmer London I don’t know much but I do know this. Kindness and mercy remains in Quartzsite, despite the devilish antics of a few. Think! Churches, Food Bank and Salvation Army. Bless those who serve this community faithfully and well. May their dedication and resolve never falter. Bless those too who provide support. Brought to you by Elmer London & Desert Messenger
