Here for good.<br />
For more than twenty years the MAA<br />
has served as a valuable link between<br />
generous alumni and friends and the next<br />
generation of <strong>Marlington</strong> graduates. More<br />
than donors or philanthropists, the growing<br />
pool of individuals who annually support<br />
the MAA are making purposeful and critical<br />
investments in the future. We are grateful for<br />
your continued support and strive to make<br />
you proud of your school, the honorees we<br />
select and the work of the MAA.<br />
Since our first $500 awards in 1989 to the<br />
twenty awards totaling $45,000 in 2012, the<br />
<strong>Marlington</strong> <strong>Alumni</strong> <strong>Association</strong> strives to<br />
make a difference. Just like the <strong>Marlington</strong><br />
School district, we’ve grown and changed.<br />
But we remain, as always, here for good. For<br />
good of the next generations, for good of<br />
you, our donors, and for good of the global<br />
community we now inhabit, we’re here.<br />
Donors are the heart of the MAA. Our goal<br />
is to help you tailor your giving to match your<br />
philanthropic dreams and to make donating<br />
as easy as possible. I invite you to become<br />
a patron at the level most appropriate for<br />
you and your family, and make your taxdeductible<br />
gift of $25, $50, $500, $1,000 or<br />
more using the enclosed envelope or online<br />
at www.marlingtonalumni.org. We’re here<br />
for good.<br />

In Memorium<br />
By Marsha (Rinehart) Graham (’70)<br />
The <strong>Marlington</strong> community lost a valued member<br />
May 3, 2012 when Thomas William Hazen went<br />
to his Heavenly home.<br />
Many remember Mr. Hazen as a principal or<br />
guidance counselor. Others saw him in the<br />
neighborhood, at church or at community<br />
functions. No matter where, Tom Hazen was<br />
most recognized by his graciousness and his<br />
friendly smile.<br />
Tom took genuine interest in other’s lives. He<br />
loved to hear updates and accomplishments and<br />
often remembered details and connections others<br />
forgot. He so enjoyed keeping up with alumni that<br />
for some years he contacted former students,<br />
charted their post-graduation accomplishments<br />
and kept up-to-date statistics. Always with an<br />
interest in improving the school, he shared the<br />
data with MHS staff and made suggestions for<br />
ways to improve MHS curriculum to better serve<br />
the students!<br />
While Tom made an impact at <strong>Marlington</strong>, his life<br />
was full of achievements!<br />
Did you know he:<br />
• was born Feb. 4, 1917 and lived for<br />
95 years<br />
• Graduated from Alliance High School<br />
• Graduated from Mount Union College<br />
• was a First Lieutenant in the United<br />
States Army<br />
• was awarded the Bronze Star<br />
• was in the Medical Detachment – Infantry<br />
• was married to Helen (Pauli) Hazen for<br />
65 years<br />
• taught at Osnaburg Local HS and<br />
Marlboro HS<br />
• earned his Master’s Degree at Kent<br />
State University<br />
• was <strong>Marlington</strong> High School’s first Principal<br />
and served for15 years<br />
• was MHS’s First Vocational Counselor<br />
• retired in 1984<br />
• was a published author<br />
Though these few facts may highlight some<br />
of Mr. Hazen’s life, they can never reveal his<br />
best trait- he was a true, honorable and wise<br />
gentleman. Mr. Hazen always listened and<br />
processed before speaking. He was tactful,<br />
caring and compassionate. He loved his family<br />
and cherished his years at <strong>Marlington</strong>. May<br />
he always be remembered both in and out<br />
of the halls of <strong>Marlington</strong> High for he will be<br />
sorely missed.<br />

Jeff Pucci (’82)<br />
I give to the MAA because of my great<br />
experience at <strong>Marlington</strong>. Donating to<br />
the <strong>Alumni</strong> <strong>Association</strong> is something<br />
I want to do because of the positive<br />
experience I had- and I still bleed<br />
orange and black! Go Dukes.<br />
Ray Sluss (’44)<br />
I spent my entire career in the<br />
field of education- as a teacher,<br />
a principal and for many years in<br />
the academic textbook industry. I<br />
believe in the value of education<br />
and had opportunities because of<br />
the generosity of others. It is my<br />
privilege to give back and encourage<br />
another generation.<br />
Annabelle (Bloss) Fearon (’54)<br />
I donate to the MAA because I am<br />
proud of our school system. I know<br />
the funds are managed well and time<br />
and effort are put into choosing the<br />
recipients. We need to show our<br />
thanks for the education we received.<br />
Kevin Pucci (’78)<br />
I give to the <strong>Marlington</strong> <strong>Alumni</strong><br />
<strong>Association</strong> because it is important<br />
that I support the school that provided<br />
me the foundation of where I am<br />
today. I had a great experience being a<br />
<strong>Marlington</strong> Duke and I want to support<br />
providing the same quality education as<br />
I was given.<br />
Nancy Schwan<br />
(Retired MHS teacher)<br />
I have gladly supported MAA through<br />
the years, as <strong>Marlington</strong> – and all the<br />
wonderful people it is composed of –<br />
has supported me throughout the years.<br />
<strong>Marlington</strong> is near and dear to my heart.<br />
I did my student teaching there in the<br />
spring of 1964, then accepted a position<br />
there in the fall -- and never left until I<br />
retired thirty years later. It is a beautiful<br />
and treasured part of my life.

Why<br />
Debbie Fox ( ‘87)<br />
I give because the MAA is a great organization that promotes pride in<br />
our schools and community. I appreciate getting the newsletter with<br />
updates on events and classmates. The scholarships given to senior<br />
students as they begin their post-high school career not only help them<br />
succeed in their chosen career but affirm them as worthy individuals.<br />
