Notes for OPAL INA BOYER: In 1927, Opal was in 11th grade at Gooding High School. She played basketball, got average grades, and drove the school wagon with her sister, Neva, to school. Opal remembers these friends: Irene Bryan in Gooding, Idaho (1924-28) and Lula Bilty in Weiser, Idaho (1944-46), Bob and Virginia Gillim since 1956. Opal's favorite things: country music, mysteries, "Gone With The Wind", and hamburgers. Opal and Asa remembered celebrating the end of World War I at school and they hung and burned a replica of the Keiser. Per Opal on Thanksgiving, 1996: Opal didn't have candles on her Christmas trees as a child. They made paper ornaments out of anything they could get their hands on. Opal remembered her Grandma Mink always made them knit gloves and glass bead necklaces for Christmas. Opal and Asa remembered making paper chains to wrap around their Christmas trees. Thelma (Opal's sister) remembered: Asa & Opal eloped and didn't tell anyone they were going to get married. Opal's family was very concerned as the Leavitts were Mormans, (the Boyers were Methodists) farmers, plus Asa and Opal didn't know each other very long. They grew up in Gooding, Idaho. Bertha (known as "Mae") ran the "Lincoln Inn Cafe" there. Thelma says that growing up, Opal was quiet, but stubborn in little ways. Thelma remembers one time when Opal took scissors from Thelma and wouldn't give them back until she threw them at Thelma and almost poked her eye out. Her dad really "tanned her hide" that time, but usually, Mae was the one who would get out a green willow and spank the back of your legs with it. ii. THELMA RITA BOYER, b. Private; m.
