Ila Grey Snider, Former President of Alumni Association
A long-time devotee to the Calhoun County Alumni Association was Ila Grey Snider of Pleasant Hill, who passed away in 2006.
Ila Grey reveled in helping alumni of CCHS return to their roots and relive their school memories.
She and small group of volunteers kept alumni coming back.
In 2002 she was recognized for 50 years service to the Calhoun Farm Bureau.
Ila Grey was a "stick with it" kind of woman, who was a long time attendee of the "Silver Girls," who met a few times a week in a Grantsville restaurant.

KOFFEE KUP LUNCH BUNCH REUNITES - Mary Ann Barrows Returns
April 6, 2001
Years have passed with the "Silver Girls" lunch bunch getting
together
nearly every
weekday in Grantsville. The late Gladys Weaver Stump contended "We're
too young to
be "Golden Girls." The group, with some members experiencing health
problems,
made an effort to have lunch, one more time Friday.
Mary Ann Barrows, retired publisher and editor of The Calhoun
Chronicle, along with
her son David Barrows, joined the group after a considerable absence.
Local resident
Ila Grey Snider, who has had some difficulty making the lunch these
past few months,
was present in good form.
It was a chatty, informal get-together, as usual. Gladys, who died in
1999, said "We
talk about everyone who is not there."
