Words cannot express how deeply saddened we are for the loss of my precious sister. Even though Opal & I were separated by miles, we were always so close in our hearts and, of course, the phone. We will always have such precious memories to cherish. She will be greatly missed, but we have the comfort of knowing she is celebrating in heaven with our loved ones that preceded her. I love you so much, Opal, but I’ll see you when the Lord calls me home. 😢🥰ðŸ™
