  • The Fernley Reporter is the very best newspaper in Fernley. He made it so easy to put in Joes Obituary. I had tried numerous newspapers and they made it so difficult to work with and Robert Perea publisher/editor gets a big shout out for his kindness and help during trying times. Thank you, Robert Perea, for all your help.
