Delean Ann Haner, the youngest daughter of Erie and Irene (Beedle) Haner, was born in Logan, Iowa, on February 12, 1929. Farmers, her parents lived a few miles from Modale, Iowa. When Delean was three years old, her parents purchased a farm south of Woodbine, Iowa, where she attended country school through the eighth grade. She, then, enrolled at the Woodbine High School where she graduated with the Class of 1947. Next, she took classes to earn her Normal Training Teacher’s Certificate. In the fall of 1949, she became a country school teacher. She worked as a county school teacher in the Woodbine vicinity until January 1, 1950.

On her birthday, February 12, 1950, Delean married Clyde Miller of Sioux Rapids, Iowa, at the Little Brown Church in Nashua, Iowa. Their marriage was blessed with two children, Lourene and Mark. Clyde and Delean farmed in the Webb area for a few years following their wedding. Then, they purchased a home in Sioux Rapids where they resided for the next forty-seven years. Clyde passed away on July 5, 2012. Since March 6, 2015, Delean had made her home at the Hawkeye Care Center in Sioux Rapids.
