We are so sorry for the loss of you Mother. You have our thoughts and prayers in this time of your loss.
Many fond memories of Opal (and Arthur) growing up in Camby, youth baseball, or my many visits to Terry’s One Stop. Very sorry for your loss. We continue to keep all of you in our prayers. Jay E. Willis
I’m very sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort provide the much needed comfort for you during this difficult time. He promises at Revelation 21:4, ‘He will wipe out every tears from their eyes and death will be no more. Neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be any more. The former things have passed away.’ My deepest condolences.
