Ila Marie DeLeeuw Myers was born in Beaver, Utah September 6, 1934 to Volney E. DeLeeuw and Jennis M. Patterson DeLeeuw. She was the second of five daughters. Ila attended schools in Beaver, Utah. She graduated from Beaver High School where she met and married her high school sweetheart, Dale Hayward Myers on August 17, 1951. They have been blessed with six children, 19 grandchildren, and 32 great grandchildren. Dale and Ila move to New Plymouth, Idaho and established the Myers Dairy in 1961. Ila was a true homemaker and enjoyed cooking and canning. She always had a large garden that produced the vegetables and fruit that was canned and fed her growing family. Quilting was her all-time favorite hobby which she learned from her mother and passed on to her daughters. Most every trip to town, she added to her fabric stash for future quilting projects. After Dale retired, they enjoyed traveling and camping in their fifth wheel and fishing along the many roads they traveled.
