N E WS AND NOT E S
Palof Runs Go St. Louis Marathon
Nancy Palof, had never run a marathon before,
so when she stood at the starting line of the Go
St. Louis Marathon on April 12, she was a little
nervous.
Having started training in November for the
26.2 mile event, Palof felt prepared, but still, this
was uncharted territory. At mile 20 she wondered
if she would finish, but she kept on running and
hoped for the best.
Four hours and 19 minutes later, when Palof
crossed the finish line she couldn’t help but grin.
“I was floored . . .I couldn’t believe it!” Just to put
this into perspective, the national average finishing time for women running marathons is 4.52,
according to marathon.guide.com.
First time
marathoners usually don’t finish with a time anywhere near that and most hope simply to finish
the race. A time of 4.19 is awesome.
Palof, who grew up in Amana and now lives
in Cedar Rapids, began running as a hobby in
2010 when a friend at Iowa State University, Lia
Bahls, urged her to take it up. “I saw Lia running
laps around the track and when I started, I could
barely run a lap, but she encouraged me to keep
going.” Determination and practice made the difference, and in time, Palof increased her workouts, running 10 or more miles a week.
Palof is a behavioral analyst working with children who have autism, so patience is something
she knows and practices. “You just have to keep
at it and not give up!” Last year she and Lia ran
a half-marathon and did well, “Coming off of that
high, Lia said, ‘Hey let’s do the St. Louis marathon and I said, ‘Ok!’”
Does she plan to continue running marathons?
“This was on my bucket list so I’m happy I did it,
but I think I’ll stick to half-marathons!” Palof told
us.
OCTC Studio Season Opener a Must See
The Old Creamery Theatre Co. goes to war
with a series of award winning, highly acclaimed
plays not to be missed on its Studio Stage this
season, just as the world acknowledges the
100th anniversary of World War I.
You would have to travel to Chicago or Minneapolis to see this level of play writing, acting and
production. Take advantage of the opportunity
and do not miss these shows at the Old Creamery. The Studio Stage is located alongside the
Amana Library at the school in Middle Amana.
It’s comfortable, easy to get to and tickets are affordable.
Amana resident Ric Gerard was in the audience to see last weekend’s opening performance
of “Billy Bishop Goes to War” written by John
Gray and Eric Peterson.
“Billy Bishop Goes to War” combines excellent musical numbers, comedy and vibrant story
telling in a gripping, emotion-filled, show, Gerard tells us. Directed by Sean McCall, this is a
thought provoking, dramatic and very entertaining play that makes history come alive, and leads
us to reconsider past and present.
The show stars Santa Fe native Vaughn Irving
whose credits include performances in over 40
productions in 7 states. Plus he is the creator of
two original, award winning musicals featured at

Dear Amana Society Stockholders,
Thank you for your previous support in electing me to serve on the Amana Society
board of directors. I am once again respectfully asking for your support in this year’s
election. My commitment to you continues to be that of working with my fellow directors and management towards the continuity and profitable sustainability of the Amana
Society. We have been entrusted with an abundance of resources including our farm
land, our “Amana” brand, our beautiful setting, a rich history, and a dedicated group of
employees. As a businessman, I know how fast things are changing today, and the
challenge with the Amana Society is to balance retaining what is best of our past with
the need to constantly adapt. I believe I can continue to add value in that area and others by contributing my experience and expertise as a businessman. At the same time,
my Amana upbringing and continuing connections to the Amana Colonies allow me to
appreciate the special attributes of the company and the community.
I ask for your support and your vote in this election. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Guy H. Wendler

the Capitol Fringe Festival in Washington DC.
Irving is joined onstage by Andrew Crowe, who
has done national tours of “Cabaret,” “Sweeney
Todd” and “Stand by Your Man” and has performed in the New York City’s Shakespeare in
the Park “Twelfth Night.”
Gerard writes in his review of the show, “The
title role is performed by Vaughn Irving and he
absolutely nails the role. He takes Billy from an
irresponsible youth to a genuine war hero in an
outstanding job of developing the character. He
makes you laugh and then makes you want to
cry. Irving has to portray a group of varied individuals as he relates his story and his subtle voice
changes and accents are spot on. He is joined on
stage by Andrew Crowe whose musical talents
on the piano, harmonica and violin contribute
so much to the feel of this show. Both men have
very good vocal abilities, as well as their acting
talents, which make this show work.”
“A talented cast, the costuming by Marquetta
Senters is up to her usual high standards and ….
a good set make for a terrific night at the theatre.”
“In my lifetime, on too many occasions, I have
seen young soldiers head to war as if it were
a great adventure only to return home vastly
changed men. They have discovered war is not
a lark but a very difficult and disturbing part of
their lives that leaves them changed forever. This
play captures those feelings. I would recommend

Obituary
George P. Mittelbach, age 93 of Amana, died
Saturday, April 11, 2015 at Colonial Manor of
Amana. Funeral Serviceswere hels Tuesday,
April 14, 2015, Middle Amana Community
Church, Middle Amana, with Elder Elly Hoehnle
officiating. Burial was in the Amana Cemetery
with military honors. Memorials may be contributed to the Amana Church Society or Essence
of Life Hospice. Kloster Funeral Home, Marengo is assisting the family with arrangements.
George Philipp Mittelbach was born July 14,
1921 in West Amana, Iowa, son of Philipp and
Clara (Leichsenring) Mittelbach. He received
his education in the West Amana grade school
and graduated from Marengo High School in
1939. He attended the University of Iowa from
1940-1942, before enlisting in the Navy as
an aviation cadet. He attended Navy preflight
school in Iowa City and graduated as a commissioned officer from the Naval Air Navigation School at Oklahoma in 1945. He served
as an aviation navigation instructor until 1946,
receiving an honorable discharge. While on
leave from the Navy, he married Dorothy Marie Leichsenring on December 14, 1944 at the
home of her parents, John and Magdalena
Leichsenring in Amana.
After military service, George worked at
Amana Refrigeration for several years before
becoming a tool designer at Allis-Chalmers
in Cedar Rapids, where he was employed for
10 years. In 1959, he went to work for P&H
Harnischfeger Corporation in Cedar Rapids
and retired as a manager of manufacturing in
1982 after 24 years with the company. George
served on the board of directors of the Amana Society and was a life-long member of the
Amana Church, teaching Sunday school for
many years. He was also a member of the
Amana Heritage Society and served as a mu-
seum guide after his retirement.
George enjoyed playing golf with his friends
at the Marengo golf club, hunting with his son
and two grandsons, and he especially enjoyed
his early morning walks around Amana. He was
an accomplished artist and produced many oil
paintings of Amana scenes. Above all, he was
devoted to his family and cherished the times
he spent with them.
George is survived by his son, Gary Mittelbach and wife Katherine Gross of Richland,
MI; grandsons John Mittelbach of Venice, CA,
and Mark Mittelbach of Kalamazoo, MI. He
was preceded in death by his parents, his wife
Dorothy (Leichsenring) Mittelbach, and a sister
Lucille Langlas.
The family wishes to extend special thanks
to the nurses and staff of Colonial Manor of
Amana and Essence of Life Hospice, for their
kind and compassionate care.
Online condolences may be sent to the family at www.klosterfuneralhome.com.

Feathers in the wind
This “woman” from Middle reminded the Mayor
and me that 2015 would mark the 50th Anniversary of our graduating from Amana High School.
I do not understand how she got that idea since
I KNOW that I am not even 40, but you just don’t
know what kind of people made our class…obviously some with failing memories.
Gloria, the Mayor, and I have gotten together
some pictures. Naturally Gloria has more pictures. That makes me wonder what she was doing all those years she was in school? I am beginning to wonder if she was lurking behind doors
taking pictures at unsuspecting victims.
She has even gotten in contact with most of
our classmates and collected yet more picture.
She and the Mayor have not only to identified
people, but also had some good laughs as to
when or how the pictures were taken.
Some of the clothes and hairstyles defy description not to mention some of the poses.
In order to “get even” I want to tell you all about
a Y-Teen Slumber Party we had in the gym. The
first “brilliant” thing we did was going around the
place and unplug the air mattresses.
That got boring after about five minutes so
some of the girls tried new hairstyles.
This was the time when one “teased” one’s hair
making it first look like you had stuck some fingers into a light socket. You would then proceed
to comb the hair into place using so much hair
spray that the ozone layer was compromised. A
few girls thought they would never breathe again!
Of course there was this one girl who had rather thick eyebrows (a uni-brow) that required two
girls to work on her eyelashes while she sat on
the sink shrieking from pain.
I am not mentioning any names, just yet, and
I will accept “gifts” in exchange for a temporary
lapse of memory.
Naturally there were the girls who decided to
“read” romance novels where the older man was
always at least 35. Good grief, how dumb could
we be?
Well the party is planned for the Fourth of July.
We plan on getting together the night before and
then wandering down to the ballpark in Middle on
the Fourth and renewing old friendships.
Naturally everyone will be surprised that this
is our 50th Reunion since we are all so well put
together, have accomplished many things, and
are rich beyond our wildest dreams. (I am trying
to find someone will give me the winning lottery
ticket and help me take a lot of weight off.)
