An online guest register is available for the East family: https:// obittree.com/obituary/us/virginia/gate-city/gate-city-funeral- home/glenda-east/3482075/ Don Marando (1929-2018) Journeyman Make-up Artist After serving in the Army Counter Intelligence Corp from 1945-1951, he then attended Indiana University and Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. He owned a restaurant (Donny's Inferno) and semi-professional theater company. Don moved his family to California in 1968, where he became Bob Hope's make-up artist for almost 30 years doing movies, series, specials and USO tours and traveled the world. Originally a TV tape member, Don worked at NBC, CBS, KTLA, KCOP, ABC, the BBC in London, the CBS in Montreal and Vancouver, and the networks in New York for a number of years. Don then became a journeyman and did some of the favorite TV series of the 1980s and 1990s, including Jake and the Fatman, The Dukes of Hazard, T.J. Hooker, Starman, Walking Tall and the miniseries Beulah Land, all of which kept him one of the most sought-after make-up artists of all time. Hardworking and fun loving, Don always kept it lively in the make-up and hair trailer and everyone was fair game—equal opportunity laughter. Keeping his Dukes cast in line kept him hopping, and his Jake and the Fatman cast on the straight and narrow in Hawaii. After Jake, Don stayed in Hawaii and enjoyed semi-retire- ment for a while, finally retiring and going back home to Indiana in 1999. Don trained his daughter Dawn Marando to become a Local 706 make-up journeyman, who went on to win a Daytime Emmy Award. His two sons were also IATSE mem- bers: Anthony was a member of Local 705 (Costumers) and Mark was a member of Local 33 (Stage Technicians). Don was married in 1949 to his wife Rose, who passed away April 9, 2001. Don passed away April 7, 2018. "Thanks for the memories," brother Don Marando. Shandra Page-Edwards (1971-2018) Journeyman Hair Stylist The passing of our talented sister Shandra Page-Edwards left so many grieving family and friends who loved and admired the pure heart and dedication of her sweet soul. After getting experi- ence on comedy shows on BET, "Sha" joined Local 706 in 2007 and proudly became a journeyman in 2015. She is remembered Dale Miller (1936-2018) Journeyman Hair Stylist Outrageous, outspoken and a very fine hair stylist, Dale Miller joined Local 706 in 1985. He became a journeyman in 1989 and his work spanned every- thing from daytime dramas to action-adventure features. Dale was normally the "key" or addi- tional hair stylist, and was the person you always wanted on your team. He would work hard and produced the most glamorous hair styles working for more than a dozen years on the Academy Awards and the Primetime Emmys, but he loved working in the trenches— entertaining the troops in the tents and trailers, getting the work done and laughing all the way. Dale took great pride in the work of the film and television hair stylists and was a great advocate for the work they do in the entertainment industry. He boldly challenged (then) Gov. Pete Wilson and the California Industrial Welfare Commission when they were considering eliminating overtime provisions. Dale was not afraid to step in and let his voice be heard. His film and television credits spanned from feature films (Last Action Hero, Newsies, Eraser) to sitcoms and episodics (It's a Living, 7th Heaven, JAG, That's Life, The Torkelsons, Nine to Five, Fridays, plus numerous soap operas and daytime television). For many years, he was the personal stylist for actress Ann Jillian. Dale Miller was nominated for two Daytime Emmys for his work on General Hospital. Dale loved his union and served as a member of the Board of Trustees for a number of years. His creative artistry and love of people made him a delightful host at parties at the home he shared with husband Robert Norton in Glendale, and then when they moved to the desert. Dale honorably with- drew from Local 706 in 2001 and retired. Dale is survived by his nephew Richard Miller. Robert passed away a few years ago, and Dale is lovingly remembered by many of his hair stylist and make-up artist brothers and sisters of Local 706.
