So sorry for the family in their loss of O’dell…we met this sweet lady while working on our family tree. Became good friends and even spent a couple of nights at her home during the McInenly Reunion that was held at Frank McInenly (the auctioneer) s., home. O’dell made breakfast for those of us who stayed at her home…what a lady! We will miss her cards and calls. So proud to have known her. We are from California.
Sending our deepest sympathies to the family. We considered O’Dell as our adopted Mom. She will be sadly missed.
Love Don & Esther Hoerle & Marie Hoerle & families
