SSW: Rayburn O. - Inscription: "Married May 11, 1949" - Research Note: Daughter of Benjamin Franklin Terry and Margaret J. Turner. On May 11, 1949, she was united in marriage to Rayburn Newman, who preceded her in death on March 30, 1969. Also preceding her in death were her parents; two sons, Rickey Newman and Randy Newman; three brothers, Manford Terry, Herbert Terry and Hoze Terry and two sisters, Vesta Holloway and Dora Ash. Opal received her education at Purdy, where she graduated from high school. For many years she was a seamstress. Opal was a part of the Greatest Generation. She'd seen a lot in her 93 years. Recently, she'd started looking back on how things used to be and made sure to tell all the kids and grandkids about how much had changed. Then, she'd say, when you wanted some milk, you'd go to the barn and milk the cow. Now you just go to Costco and buy a gallon. Then, when you needed some water you'd have to draw it up out of the well. Now, you just turn the sink on. Then, when you wanted eggs you'd go out to the coop and have to collect them. Now, you just go to Costco and buy your eggs. She had a hundred then and now's, and us kids are going to miss hearing them. Census
