  • ROSE MOFFORD Honored As a Historymaker 1999
    Arizona HistorymakersJ Oral History Transcript Historical League, Inc. 8 2018 ROSE MOFFORD 1922 - 2016 Honored as a Historymaker 1999 Arizona’s First Woman Governor The following is an oral history interview with Rose Mofford (RM) conducted by Reba Wells Grandrud (RG) for Historical League, Inc. on June 5, 1998, in the home of Pat Mason, chairman of the 1999 Historymakers Gala 5, Phoenix, Arizona. Transcripts for website edited by members of Historical League, Inc. Original tapes are in the collection of the Arizona Heritage Center Archives, an Historical Society Museum, Tempe, Arizona. RG: Governor Mofford has been named a 1999 Historymaker by the Historical League of the Central Arizona Division of Arizona Historical Society. Governor Mofford, as you know, the Central Arizona Division of the Historical Society has a great collection of oral history tapes, transcripts, and memorabilia that was gathered when we were celebrating the United States bicentennial. And at that time, CAD, or Central Arizona Division, was the Phoenix Historical Society. It was housed in the Shackelford House at 1 242 North Central. In 1 976, February, you were interviewed by Karin Ullmann. And, of course, the focus at that time was on the Phoenix area and, mostly, your long time service with Arizona state government. I'd like to supplement that interview with some of your thoughts on what has happened in the 20 years since that interview. But, first, could we start with some background on you as a native of Arizona. Now, we all know that you were born in Globe, county seat of Gila County, but maybe you could tell us your name, birth date, something about your parents, what brought them to Arizona, that kind of thing.

    QUOTES ON RETIREMENT AND AGING Sometimes memories sneak out of my eyes and roll down my cheeks. —Ged Backland ‘Old times’ never come back—and I suppose it’s just as well. What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that’s better. —George E. Woodberry The best place to be when you’re sad is Grandpa’s lap —seniorresource.com As I grew older I thought the best part of my life was over. Then I was handed my first grandchild and realized…the best part of my life had just begun. —T-Shirt Slogan The years between 50 and 70 are the hardest. You are always being asked to do things and yet are not decrepit enough to turn them down. —T. S. Eliot My first grandchild, Jordan, was born on January 30, 2011. I was jolted, blindsided by a wallop of loving more intense than anything I could remember or had ever imagined….This is what I didn’t expect. I was at a time in my life where I’d assumed I had already had my best day, my tallest high. But now I was overwhelmed with euphoria. Why was she hitting with such a force? What explains this joy, this grandmother elation that is a new kind of love? —Lesley Stahl You take all the experience and judgement of men over 50 out of the world and there wouldn’t be enough left to run it. —Henry Ford Don’t cry over the past, it’s gone.

  • 100 Years of Public Service a Message from Our Secretary of State
    100 Years of Public Service A Message From Our Secretary of State For more than one hundred years, the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records has dedicated itself to preserving our state’s rich history and providing continued public access to the historical documents that tell the story of our magnificent state. On March 24, 2015 we celebrate the Centennial Anniversary of the official creation of the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records as an institution of the state. Few cultural institutions have the type of impact community libraries have on our society. With more than twenty-five million visits to more than two hundred libraries in Arizona each year, libraries are a critical thread in the fabric that forms our communities. Libraries make information and entertainment available to the masses whether it be the printed word or online access still unavailable to many in our state. Today, libraries are growing services to serve as job hubs for those seeking employment and as technology centers making advancements such as 3D printers accessible to everyone. In an era of unpreceded technological advancement, the State Library, Archives and Public Records division’s mission is more important than ever before. If we are to understand the present to plan for the future, we must have access to the past. Please enjoy this wonderful publication commemorating our one hundred years of public service! Michele Reagan, Secretary of State A Message From Our Secretary of State 100 Years of Public Service Published by the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records, a Division of the Secretary of State, to commemorate the establishment of the State Library at the Arizona State Capitol by the Legislature in March 1915.
