She taught at Platteview High School until she was cut, due to the budget.
She attended UNL to obtain her Master's Degree in Student Development. During her internship, she developed and wrote the Transfer Handbook. She was a student advisor for the College of Nursing for 10+ years, worked in Administrations for 10+ years, and has been with the Pre-Vet Program for the last 6+ years. In all, she has worked at UNL for around 30 years.
She started going to Husker football games with her parents when she was two years old and enjoyed sitting on a ledge beside their seats. She has been a great fan ever since.
She has a wide range of friends around the world. We all miss her wisdom, expertise, and common sense.
Lila was preceded in death by her father Norman Tooker. She is survived by her mother Phyllis Tooker, her brother Russ Tooker, and nephew Garrett Tooker.
