Heather,
You should be able to just call the paper and they will have an archive issue . . . you might not be able to get the entire paper but should be able to get your son's notice. Just be sure that you explain your situation and I am sure that someone will want to help to help you. Also check with your local library, some still keep microfiche files of newspapers and now may store them in digital form and even if they don't they may know who exactly to contact at the paper . . .
You are not doing anything wrong . . you are grieving and there is no right or wrong method for that nor is there a timeline that says "Now you must stop" . . .
It seems that wanting to have that paper so that you can look at it whenever you want is a very healthy and normal thing . . . not wanting to dig through a box of things you are not ready to see seems like a normal thing too. Only you can be the one to know when you are ready to do something like that.
