July 28, 1924 — December 13, 2010

Opal Irene Hoyne, the daughter of George Edwin and Mabel Adella Madsen Williamson, was born July 28, 1924 in Storm Lake, Iowa. Her childhood years were spent in the Greenville, Iowa area, where she received her education, graduating from Greenville Consolidated School. Following her schooling, she worked at Scott's Variety Store in Spencer. Opal married Kenneth Hoyne on August 14, 1949 at the Grace United Methodist Church in Spencer. Following their marriage, they lived in Spencer, where she worked as an accountant for Pixler Electric for many years. Opal enjoyed bowling and at one time was the top rated female bowler in Spencer. She continued bowling throughout most of her life and maintained a 165 average until she was in her 70's. She also enjoyed golfing, dancing and taking care of her family. One of the favorite things she enjoyed throughout her life, was traveling to Leaf Lake, Minnesota for 60 years sometimes three times a year to share times with her friends and family until her health stopped her from going just in the last few years. Opal passed away at the Baum-Harmon Hospital in Sutherland, Iowa on Monday, December 13, 2010 at the age of 86. She was preceded in death by her parents; two sisters: Helen and Arlyne and a brother, Lloyd.
