The 2025 Pueblo Community College, Fremont Campus Senior Mini College is dedicated to our friends of life-long learning DeDe and Marv Waldman. Marv and DeDe retiredto Canon CityfromMadison, Wisconsinin2002. The couple quickly integrated into the community through their volunteer work as members of several Shephardofthe Hills Lutheran Church committees, choir and church council,the Canon City Police Department Citizen’ s Volunteer group, and theFremont Campus SeniorMini College Steering Committee. Marv and DeDe worked 3years on the Royal Gorge Route Railroad. Their “fun job”onthe train allowedthe couple to meet people from all over the world who weretraveling through Fremont County
Marv and DeDe began attendingSenior Mini College classes in 2006 after hearing about the program from afriend. They enjoyed Mini College so much they decided to join the steering committee. DeDe joined in 2007 and Marv in 2010.
They have been an integral part of the committee attending meetings, serving as greeters during registration, suggesting class topics, and recruiting instructors and donors. In2024 Marv and DeDe made the difficult decision to step down from the steering committee to focus on theirhealth. Thank you, Marv and DeDe, for your dedication to the successofFremont Campus Senior Mini College.You will be missed!
