We mourn the loss of Howard Staub, who died May 7, 2008.   Howard Staub's weekly radio show, The Real West from the Old West aired live on the radio and on the internet each Wednesday morning from 10:00 AM until noon on KOTS/1230AM in Deming, New Mexico. The Real West from the Old West featured cowboy music, cowboy poetry, and western swing, and cowboys and cowgirls, past and present.  After a twenty-five year association with the United States Air Force, Howard relocated to Deming in 1985 from Southern California. Prior to his twenty-year career in the USAF and five years with Northrop Aviation, Howard hailed from O'Neill, Nebraska, "The Irish Capitol of the State of Nebraska." His early youth was spent in Iowa, Missouri and South Dakota. His live radio show, The Real West from the Old West, fills a void ignored by other radio stations in Southwest New Mexico and continues to keep alive the cowboy way of life through music and words. When Howard isn't busy putting together the next Cowboy & Western program to air, he can be found participating with his bride, in the many various shooting sports held in the Great American Southwest. Howard Staub was on the Board of the Western Music Association and was a regular contributor to Joe Baker's Backforty Bunkhouse newsletter.
