My thoughts & prayers are with you!
I grew up with Opal. Our classes were like one as each class was so small.
Neal, you were a friend of our son, Kenn, during the summers when we visited from Illinois with Grandmother Nina Bohannon Hicks. We always appreciated your friendship with Kenn as it made his/our vacations more enjoyable having friends there. One summer you went with our family to the Beach. (Kenn died Jan. 1, 2003 of cancer, leavin his wife, Janine, and a 10-yr- old son, Jamie. They now live in Manistee, Michigan.)
May God give you comfort, strength, mercy, and hope.
In Gos's love and mine,
