Lila Schrack Willich Mahan entered this world on Nov. 19, 1918, in Clarinda, Iowa, as the oldest child of Vern and Mabel Schrack. She left peacefully on Sept. 29, 2008, after living a lifetime. The family homesteaded on a farm near Stoneham, where Lila began her education experiences in a one-room school house. In 1929, the small country schools were consolidated into one school in Stoneham, where she graduated in 1936. After graduation, she attended Colorado State Teacher's College in Greeley and obtained her teaching certificate. Her first teaching job was in a one-room school in Vim. In 1939, she married Robert "Bob" Willich of Stoneham. In 1942, she began teaching elementary school in Stoneham, where she taught for 17 years. In 1963, Bob passed away. In 1965, she married Eugene "Gene" Willich of Stoneham, and left teaching. She and Gene traveled throughout the western United States with Gene's job until Gene's death in 1971. In 1972, Lila moved from Stoneham to Sterling and began teaching again, being employed as a remedial reading teacher at Sexson School.
