Madelyn Miller Olander

I look back at high school and wonder how I ever graduated. You are shocked at that, I am sure, but I day-dreamed my class time away and talked with girl-friends (I was too shy to talk to anyone else) and laughed the rest of the time. I loved band and made most of my great memories there. I went off to college and those habits did not work so well so I had to redo my learning strategies. Don and I were married in '67 at the beginning our senior year at NAU. On Graduation Day, Don got his 1-A notice and I found out we were expecting.
Don joined the Air Force and went in after Eric was born in Flagstaff. We spent his enlistment at Kirtland AFB in Albuquerque where Don was a Medic. Cristin was born there. When he got out, we moved back to Bisbee and Don worked with my dad at Bisbee Cable TV. What was I doing--raising kids as a stay-at-home Mom and substitute teaching. Brandon was born in Bisbee. In the summers of '84 and '85, I went back to NAU and got the required classes for a school librarian endorsement. I was hired by Principal Donnie Rothery (BHS '65) to be the Sierra Vista Middle School librarian in '85. I loved it there and after 26 years I retired. Don stayed in cable TV as general manager and worked for the Washington Post Company, Cable TV Division after they bought Bisbee Cable. When he left TV, he went to work as an electrician with his brother Jim. We are both retired now and spend our summers in Colorado and our winters in AZ. Our kids grew up (as kids tend to do) and graduated from ASU. They are all married and have given us 8 grandchildren. "Life is good" Mimi
