Mildred Schriber was born April 11, 1924, the daughter of William and Dora Miller. She received her education in country schools in Sac County.

On February 9, 1944, Mildred was united into marriage to Edward Schriber in Schaller, Iowa.   To this union two children were born, Sharon and Barbara. The family made their home in Ida County where they farmed for many years.

She was a devoted and caring mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who loved her family very much.  Baking and reading were her favorite activities.  Mildred was a member of the First United Methodist Church in Ida Grove, where she was involved in many activities over the years. Her faith in the Lord was very evident throughout her life.
