Lexington News Opinion

Dear Editor, The Higginsville Advance has now had the retirement of another great asset to the paper, Doug Booker. Doug has been a fine communicator and he has always been open to listen to anyone who has stories they would like to see covered in our local paper. With the recent possibility of our community losing the newspaper, I am glad that threat has been eliminated for the time being, but the loss of Mr. Booker will not be avoided, unfortunately. Thanks, Doug, for all your hard work and providing us with years of reliable news. I'm sorry to see you go, but happy retirement!
