She was born in Forsyth, MT on Aug. 2, 1922, to Lillian May Smith Coole and Eli Glen Coole. Lillian was eighth in line with and two older brothers, five older sisters and one younger sister. Growing up on a homestead north of Forsyth, life presented interesting challenges Lillian spoke of throughout her life. During her early school years she attended Mud Spring School north of Forsyth about a mile from her home. The children either walked to school or rode a horse. When the drought finished her family financially, they gave up the homestead and moved into Forsyth and she entered the Forsyth schools at the age of 13. Lillian graduated high school at the age of 16 and she married Paul Leo Buckalew June 1, 1939. Motherhood took up most of Lillian’s time during earlier years of marriage. Her older children remember coming home from school, seeing her holding a baby on her hip with one hand and stirring a kettle of stew with the other hand. The smell of fresh bread or cinnamon rolls was always present. Neighboring children found refuge from the cold while waiting for the school bus and it seemed there was always an extra child who joined the family for supper. Happiest occasions were when the house was filled with music and laughter. Lillian loved to laugh and nearly always had a smile on her face. An excellent seamstress, Lillian sewed most of her children’s clothing leading to a life-long love of quilting. She made each of her children hand-quilted quilts. Through Lillian’s last days, her favorite past times were reading, crossword puzzles, and word finds. She loved to sit, rocking a baby and singing softly. Often, one would enter her home hearing sweet sounds of her organ playing or making music with her harmonica. The Forsyth Senior Center and her wonderful friends were dear to Lillian’s heart. She always looked forward to visiting and playing Skip Bo cards. Most of all, she loved visits from all her children. Those living in the area stopped by to visit daily and all the others made one or more yearly trips home to see her. Lillian is survived by all ten of her children: Pauline Stoll (Raymond) of Newport, WA, Joseph Buckalew (Anita) of Colstrip, Vera Dobler (Lionel) of Post Falls, ID, Linda Kopitzke (Dennis) of Forsyth, Shirley Harrsch (Gerald) of Meridian, ID, Carol Leary (Leonard) of Damascus, OR, Vivian Cogdill of Forsyth, Stanley Buckalew (Beverly) of Forsyth, David Buckalew of Elko, NV, and Raymond Buckalew (Misty) of Maple Valley, WA. She is also survived by 23 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren, and 4 great-great-grandchildren. Other extended family members include step children, nieces, and nephews. Lillian is also survived by her only living sibling, Vera Schreiter (Lou) of Carlton, IL. Lillian is preceded in death by her parents, Lillian May and Eli Glen Coole; her husband, Paul Leo Buckalew (Feb 11, 1998); brothers, Merton and Glen Ellis; sisters: Lena Opal, Ruby May, Pearl Lavina, Helen Crystal, and Clara Garnet; uncles, Peter Smith and Paul Smith who were raised in the Coole home as brothers; and grandson, Forrest (Frosty) Glen Stoll.
