Last Friday the Aviation department of ASU lost one of our family. Dr. Mary Niemczyk passed in the hospital, after a lengthy battle with cancer. I’ve spent all weekend reflecting on her and came to realize that I know so little about the wonderful teachers I work with, especially Mary. We each have our own classes, and our own programs, in essence, our own little worlds in our own little orbits. We see each other in meetings, say hello in the hallways, but I must admit I never knew how much Mary meant to her students. I’ve been seeing testimonials from her students for the past couple of days, and the love and appreciation they have for her is extremely touching and enlightening as well. I know she cared for her students, that’s one trait that’s common in the aviation department. We’re all doing this for love, not money. What struck me in her testimonials is how much she went out of her way for her students, her kindness, and her professionalism. I’ll always remember her from my early days at ASU, when I first applied in April of 2015. I didn’t think I had a chance, my first job teaching, and at a major university no less. And me? I was an Aircraft Mechanic, not exactly College material. But she guided me through the process and let me “interview”. My interview consisted of performing a lecture in front of Mary, and all my colleagues. She told me to keep my talk to 10 minutes, and my topic was the transition from analog to digital avionics, or “Glass Cockpits”. I had experience in the field, from my F-111 Test days, where the technologies started, to modern-day aircraft. My 10 minutes of lecture turned into an hour and a half of questions and answers, with Mary asking as many questions as the other professors. I figured I did well, based on that.But ultimately, it was Mary’s decision. She hired me. She took a chance on me. Now I can’t imagine doing anything else. When I went to work today, I kept looking at her office. I simply can’t fathom seeing her door open again and at least saying hi. I was planning on asking her this semester about the Ph.D. process, yet again seeking her advice. But I’ll never get the chance now. We’ll press on, as I know she would want us to. But I think we all feel that our breath has been knocked out. We’ve been punched. Hard. There is literally no one that can ever hope to fill her shoes. But I see the legacy she left in her students, especially the students in the Master’s degree programs. We’ll miss you, Mary. But you’ll never be forgotten. And thanks for taking a chance with me.
