She was born near Albion on May 25, 1903, to Mac and Elizabeth Hope Chambers, a pioneer family of the area. She attend a one-room school here and started working as a postal clerk in the local post office while still in high school. She signed the oath of allegiance on May 27, 1924, when Manda Belmar was the postmaster. This framed affidavit adorns a place in one of the Guy-Albion Historical Society rooms.

Nida attended the Albion United Protestant Church, and was the pianist for many years, playing for church services and for various groups. (Nida possessed a dandy sense of humor, and she wand the writer used to have some funny talks together. She recounted the time when she was to accompany a trumpet-playing minister during a church service. She said she thought something sounded odd when they began playing. She could hardly finish the story for the laughter. Seems as if he was playing "Oh, For A Thousand Tongues" and she was playing "How Firm a Foundation". At one time, Nida belonged to the Albion Women's Club. Survivors include a son, Vern Bidle of rural Albion, a daughter, Kathy Kammerzell of Colfax; two sisters, Bernice Christopher of Moscow, Idaho and Grace Wayne of Tacoma; nine grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.
