Well that made me laugh. Which paper? My dad got all the papers from Deming for years mailed to him in Oregon. I found my birth announcement in the Deming Headlight from May 1945...on the front page no less. The newspapers were at Ancestry.com.
I worked for the Deming Headlight for three years. Then I went to Silver City and worked for the Daily Press for about seven years.
I moved to Nebraska to be closer to my kids and grandkids and was editor of my hometown newspaper until I retired. That was the same daily paper where I started as sports editor-reporter when I was 19.
I love New Mexico.
