She was devoted to her family and throughout her lifetime held that family close together with her love and sacrifices. She was the focal point of the family, and all of her children and grandchildren would gather at her place for every major holiday. She would spend days in advance of the holidays baking the favorite desserts for all of the children and grandchildren. She made many friends wherever she went and her dry wit and sense of humor was ever present in any situation. She would often catch people off guard by saying exactly what she thought. She never pulled any punches and you always knew exactly where she stood on any issue or circumstance.
Miss Opal will be loved and missed by family, friends and extended family from Siloam Springs Rehab.
She was preceded in death by four brothers, Robert, Omer, Oran and Jack Brannon; two sisters, Ruth Tomlinson and Pearl Drain.
She is survived by two sons, William E. Beth and his, wife, Waynita of Harrison and David E. Beth and his wife, Carla, of St. Charles, Mo.; two daughters, Yvonne E. Larson and her husband, Mike, of Siloam Springs and Evelyn S. Lock of Elkins; a brother, Tommy Brannon of Fayetteville; two sisters, Lola Cunningham and Betty Sachs, both of Elkins; seven grandchildren, Cody Larson, Matt Larson, Kim Roebuck, Whitney Beth, Ray Powell, David Beth and Cindy Beth; and nine great-grandchildren.
