He attended Chicago Public School, graduating from high school in 1950, and then spending a brief time at the University of Illinois Undergrad facility at Navy Pier. Although too young for the draft, he enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1952. It was during this time that he met, and married his wife of more than fifty years, Jean. Together they have four children, six grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Bandemer retired from the corporate world in 1995, and has spent the past ten years working part-time in fundraising and sales for the Houston Symphony.
