Deeann Griebel still drives to work in the maroon 1975 Chevy Caprice Classic she bought in Pipestone.
When purchased, the odometer read 125 miles. Today that number is 368,000. The car has been restored twice, and is on its second engine, third transmission and fourth radiator. It’s in immaculate shape. “I smile every time I look at her,” said Griebel, a 1980 alumna who recently committed $1.8 million to Southwest Minnesota State University.
Griebel is the managing director of investments for Moors & Cabot, Inc., in Mesa Arizona, a state she moved to shortly after earning her accounting degree from SMSU.

The mountains form a backdrop for the community.
Las Sendas Community Association
Las Sendas, an exclusive master-planned community in Mesa, Arizona, is an oasis set in the pristine Sonoran Desert.
Its name, which in Spanish means the paths, refers to the miles of natural desert and hard-surface trails for walking, running and biking, which are designed to lead to intimate settings.
With its scenic mountain and valley views, Las Sendas is a beautiful haven for those who have the time or inclination to put the world on pause and devote themselves to relaxation and recreation.
