OBIT ARY

I Opal Mary Cunningham, daughter of Henry and Jeanettie Cunningham was born in Boone County, Feb. 5,1896 and departed this llte at the Methodist Ho.-pital in Indianapolis on March 29, 1929 at the age of 33 years, 1 month and 24 days. fn August 1917 she united with the Missionary Baptist church at Reno and later moved her membership to Bethel where it remained until she was called away. Opal lived a quiet pleasant life always ready to assist when needed. During her many years of illness she always cheered those about her by her cheerful disposition ami smiles. She was a devoted Christian and on Good Friday, the day Christ died, seemed a fitting day for Opal’s spirit to leave this world, and we lay her body to rest, as Christ was lain, and await the resurrection that she may rise again as we find in God’- word. She leaves to mourn her loss her devoted father and mother, 3 brothers, Levi of Shelby County, Rayborn of Coatesville, and Chester at home, 3 sisters, Misses Stella, Maggie and Mary, 2 sister-in-law’s, Zella and Lora; 3 nieces, Elsie Jeanettie, Betty Jean; 3 nephews, Rus--ell, Andrew, Ralph, an aged grandfather and grandmother: and a host of relatives and friends. Her little nephew YVilbur Eugene preceded her in death on Jan. 23 of

this year.

Farewell Opal but not forever, we will meet again in that Glorious dawn on the blessed resurrection morn.
