Lola attended country school (Washington No 7) one mile north of their home until 8th grade. The last half of her 8th grade year, she went to Williamson (Colony No 3). Lola attended Nevinville High School for two years then Greenfield High School her junior and senior years where she received her normal teaching certificate. She graduated in 1934 at the age of 16 but could not teach until she was 18 years old. While she waited the two years to teach, she worked as a hired girl in homes. She taught at a one- room country school, Washington No 7 in Adair County, for one year before marriage. In January, 1935, Lola met Ernie at a dance at the Williamson Hall. They were united in marriage May 15, 1937 at the Hill of Zion Church and lived on a farm south of Williamson. To this union 4 children were born: Edward, who died in infancy, Sharon, Richard and Joyce. Lola was a homemaker and farmwife and life-long resident of the Williamson community. Lola gave much time and effort to her church and organizations to which she belonged.

She also enjoyed traveling and had been in all 50 states and many foreign countries. But nothing was more important than her family and her home. Through the years, she made many quilts and afghans for her children and grandchildren and these gifts to her family will always be a reminder of her love and devotion.
