She was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, on August 18, 1913. She married Bert R. Boruff on November 20, 1929, and was a loving and devoted wife for 53 years until Bert's death in 1983. They had a glorious and wonderful life together, and raised three sons, William, Robert and James. In 1955, they moved to Dallas from Indiana and started a business, Bert's Service, and later started Commercial Ice Machines of Dallas. Opal was part owner of the business and worked there until 1991. She was a member of Lake Ridge Bible Church in Mesquite. She loved and served her Lord and personal Savior from an early age. She treasured her personal relationship with Him and she trusted Him for her salvation and His wonderful promise of eternal life.

Two of Opal's favorite scriptures are: "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die" John 11:25-26. "In My Father's house are many rooms: if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am." John 14:2-3.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to the library at Lake Ridge Bible Church.
