To the family of Opal,
I am so sorry I missed hearing about this. Opal & I went to school in Randolph many years ago and got to visit together when we had our 50th reunion in 2009. Opal and I spend some fun times in each others homes while in school at Randolph and I am truly sorry I didn't stay in touch. She was a great gal and good friend, again so sorry for your loss.
