Centenarian Felix Sanchez Celebrates Questa Birthday
Felix Sanchez marked his 100th birthday at St. Anthony’s Parish Hall in Questa on May 30. Born May 24, 1899, in southern Colorado, he was surrounded by about 400 relatives and friends from Corpus Christi, Houston, San Luis, Taos and Costilla. He, his late wife Osha, and their children helped organize church life, sponsored many couples as padrinos, and supported the SPMDTU Concilio 43. Sanchez remains active in community service, headlining Questa Fiesta days as grand marshal and aiding local anti drug efforts while enjoying time with family.
