| "Our readers are interested and engaged in their individual communities and in Fauquier County as a whole. It is very satisfying to produce a newspaper that you know will be so well and deeply read." |
| |
| “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent on things that matter.” |

| "When I started at this newspaper nearly 20 years ago, I was pretty excited to take over as the only 'Horse Sports Editor' at a regular broadsheet newspaper in the nation. Today, almost two decades later, I still feel that tingle of excitement. The Times papers still offer the only regular horse sports coverage in the nation (besides industry publications, of course) and, being square in the center of Virginia's storied horse country, it is a natural fit. It is an honor to bring the news -- local, regional, national, international -- to the readers." |

| “I absolutely have the best job in the newsroom. What could be better than writing about interesting people and events in the Fauquier Weekend?” |
| Reporters |
| |
| "I carry in my wallet a quote from R.W. Apple Jr. of The New York Times, a master of the craft. 'As a reporter you are an amateur. If you think you've become a professional, that you can teach lessons to the generals, you can teach lessons to the presidents ... you're in trouble. Your job is to represent your reader ― go and experience and try to explain and relate it to that reader." |
| |
| “Giving our children the opportunity to be creative is one of the greatest gifts we can bestow.” |
| |
| "On my beat, you never want anything bad to happen to anyone. But if it does, you want to be the first one there so you can help the victim(s) share their story." |
| |
| “Everything has a story if you listen and observe. I like to soak up those stories, and reveal what hasn't been told before.” |
| |
| "Writing hundreds of thousands of words a year only grows old when your audience loses its hunger for more." |
| |
| "I take care of 'everything else' in the newsroom." |
| Photojournalists |
| |
| "I love capturing special moments that high school athletes will look back on and remember for the rest of their lives." |
| |
| "Shoot the verb." |
| |
| "I live for the photographic moment" |
