by Tina Peters ‘DecUcatitw Lola Greenbaum, wife of Robert for forty-three years, was more than just a teacher at Brimfield High School. She belonged to the Sacred Heart Church of Peoria and was an active member of the Town and Gown Club and the Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Columbus. In her spare time she enjoyed knitting, painting, and reading. Mrs. Greenbaum was also an avid golfer and swimmer. She acquired her Assistant Professor's degree from Bradley University. She then went on to teach at Limestone High School. During her nineteen year teaching career at B.H.S., Mrs. Greenbaum was an “institution” to sophomore English students. Also, aside from being a speech sponsor, she headed the drama club. Mrs. Greenbaum was considered to be an excellent, if sometimes challenging, teacher. Her students were well prepared for their college English classes. Many of them returned — time and time again to thank her. She was also held in fond regard as evidenced by the many letters and cards she received during her final illness.
