Agnes "Opal" Otinger was born Jan. 17, 1921, in Jackson County, Ala., to Delbert and Stella Monroe Otinger. After her parents' deaths, she made her home with the Rev. and Mrs. L.J. Ashley. On Aug. 1, 1937, she married Grady Smith. They were married 70 years. They moved to Amarillo in 1955 from Fort Payne, Ala. They were devoted to God, family, friends and each other.

Opal was a member of Paramount Baptist church. She was very creative and involved in many handicrafts. Her home with Grady was welcome to one and all. Opal is now with her beloved Grady. Granny, you will be in our hearts forever.

The family wishes to thank her friends for their love and support, and to Country Club Nursing and Rehab and Odyssey Hospice Care for their loving care.
