I am so saddened to hear that Opal has passed away. This lady was an angel on earth. I loved her so much. We lived across from each other at the apartments for several years and kept in touch after I moved. She was so precious and beautiful both inside and out. One of the kindest and loving persons I've ever known. She will be greatly missed. To Mark and family: If there's anything I can do, let me know. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
I will miss you so much and our long chats on the phone.
and "Now let me tell you..."
Love you Aunt Opal rest in peace.
