In Memoriam: Donald M. Mihaloew, 1938-2016 onald M. Mihaloew, an adjunct instructor who taught at Portland State from 1998 to 2015, died of cancer October 8, 2016 in his Bellingham, Washington home. He was 78 years old. Dr. Mihaloew was born July 5, 1938, to Michael and Rose Mihaloew in Ambridge, Pennsylvania. He graduated with a degree in philosophy from Westminister College, New Wilmington, Pennsylvania, then earned a M.Div. from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1964. He settled in Eugene in 1969 and entered the University of Oregon, completing an M.A. in counseling psychology in 1971 and an Ed.D. in 1991. In addition to Portland State, Dr. Mihaloew was an adjunct instructor at Lane Community College, Northwest Christian College, University of Oregon, and Lewis & Clark College. Professor Rick Johnson, Graduate School of Education, remembered Dr. Mihaloew as a “passionate and talented educator who inspired generations of counselors.” “He had many students and colleagues who admired him greatly,” Professor Johnson recalled. “His great passion professionally was Jungian theory and practice.” Dr. Mihaloew taught courses in Jung, sex therapy, family life cycle development, couple therapy, counseling practicum, and many other courses in the marriage and family counseling area. In his three decades in Eugene, Dr. Mihaloew built a successful private practice in marriage and family therapy, raised a family, and remodeled his home. In 2006 he moved to Bellingham and retired from psychotherapy, but continued to commute by train to teach at Portland State. He also enjoyed his many interests, including jazz, politics, wine, astronomy, cooking, baseball, and the outdoors. Dr. Mihaloew is survived by his wife, Betty Kellow; daughters Christine Lindholm (Erik), of Portland, and Andreya Mihaloew (Jim Berry), of Ithaca, New York.; stepdaughters Shannon Kellow and Misty Parker (Mike) of Bellingham; brothers Jim and Jack Mihaloew, of Cleveland and Ambridge; and his former wife, Billie Mihaloew, of Portland. He also leaves behind seven grandchildren. A celebration of life was held on November 5. The family suggests remembrances be sent to an institution of higher learning or to a hospice. –Doug Swanson Mark Your Calendar: Upcoming Events June 13, 2017, PSU Faculty/Staff Chorus’s final concert of the season.
