My sincere sympathy on the loss of Opal. She was an awesome lady who loved life. I still recall Gordon and Opal and my Dad and Mom (Orance and Marie) and how much they loved to have fun. Losing a parent is hard, they are the one constant you have always had in your life. Cherish the memories, Todd family. Thinking of you all.
So sorry to hear of Opals passing. Heaven gained another angel who loved to have fun and dance. We have so many wonderful memories of Gordon and Opal. I’m sure they are hanging out with friends at the soul bar. Thinking of you all.
So sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing, She was a very sweet lad, so much fun and always a hearty laugh, It was so much fun when the sisters were together sharing stories and being silly. I especially remember the weekend that Cora and I flew to Ruth’s birthday and Opal came as well. Such fun, those ladies partied much longer than I. Not easy to keep up with them. Lots of great memories. Penny (Bishop) and Doug Richey
We are so sorry of Aunt Opals passing. Her and uncle Gordon were the closest of the relatives to us. We had so much fun with them. My mom (Ruth) and Opal were very close. I loved her very much and think of her often. I also remember the weekend of moms 80th birthday and the crazy Bishop sisters coming to town…We had so much fun. Opal you will be remembered for a long, long time! Rest In Peace. Stan & Kathy Otsig, Abbottsford, BC

Sincere sympathy to Lorna, Gordon and Karen and families. May you find comfort in all your happy memories, Sincere sympathy Faye & Kenzie MacLeod, Cochrane, Alberta
Heartfelt condolences to the Todd cousins and extended family. I got to see Aunt Opal on rare occasions (i.e.Bishop reunions) due to distance separation (Sask./Alta to BC) but when I got to see her I thoroughly enjoyed her company. She was totally loving and fun. Opal and I were paired up as horseshoe partners at the family reunion at Uncle Ole’s with l0w success and high fun.. I will always remember Aunt Opal with the same fondness and love she always showed me.
I am very sorry for your loss and wish your family strength during this difficult time.

Condolences to all of Opals family, I remember going to her house to get some kittens for our farm … and she gave us perfume lotion from Avon!! She was a kind lady, Mom really enjoyed visits with her. I had not seen her in years.
