Opal was born October 16, 1921 in Many, Louisiana, to Jim Tom and Sadie Brumley. She met and married the love of her life, Floyd Clark, on May 1, 1941. They lived in Shreveport for over 57 years, and were married 68-1/2 years. After retirement they loved to travel and had enjoyed camping all over the U.S., sometimes with friends, and sometimes with relatives. They loved working side by side in their shop, creating items out of wood, which they shared with family and friends.
