Merle Benjamin Heighe

On April 24, 2020, the valley said goodbye to Merle Benjamin Heighe.

Born Feb. 22, 1938, in Portland, Maine, Merle lived a full 82 years. If you ever had a habit of picking up The Conway Daily Sun, chances are you have picked up a paper Merle delivered. Merle loved working for the paper, ensuring that it was delivered on time from 1989 until 2017. You see, Merle was a social man who loved to chat and meet new people. He always had a story to tell, and if you knew him, you are probably thinking of one of his tales right now.
