Dick Graham, of Republic News Miner, Celebrates 100th Birthday ;)
Congratulations to Dick Graham, editor of the Republic News Miner, for celebrating his 100th birthday! Dick Graham of the Republic News Miner is not really that old, but I am not 50 years old either, as many concluded after reading his newspaper last week. The Republic News Miner ran a large birthday announcement, and did not differentiate Steve Graham (me) from his son Steve Graham who does not live anywhere near Ferry County. Needless to say, I got a lot of birthday wishes.
I haven’t really noticed other Graham family member birthday announcements in the Republic News Miner over the years, but do remember ten years ago a similar birthday announcement when his son turned 40. I asked Dick Graham about it ten years ago, and his response was that his son was here first. True. I look forward to meeting the other Steve Graham some day. Who would dream that I would move to a town of about 1000 people and face another Steve Graham?
Not much has changed in ten years. Except one thing: there is a thing called “new media.” I wonder what birthday announcements will look like in the next ten years.
For the record, I am 39 years old. If you see Dick Graham of the Republic News Miner wish him a happy 100th birthday. He is a great guy – I consider him a friend – and he has a great sense of humor.
