She taught all of us, “It is how you treat people that matters.” Everyone was welcome in her home and no one left hungry or in pain. She would preserve pickles, set a broken bone, hem a pair of overalls, and fix dinner for 25 all at the same time. She painted beautiful pictures and gave them to her friends and loved ones. She enjoyed quilting with her neighbors at the Huntsville Relief Society. Everyone in the family has snuggled under a quilt stitched by Opal May’s hand. She was a beautiful woman, inside and out. She suffered from dementia in her declining years, but her true spirit always showed. Opal May remained warm and affectionate to those around her.

The highway opened Sunday, May 17, and will remain open until this fall. SR-39 opened from milepost 37, at the Ant Flat parking lot east of Huntsville, to milepost 56 near Woodruff in Rich County. The remainder of this route is open year around. SR-39 is closed for the winter months between these points each year because of safety concerns and the prohibitive cost of keeping it open to traffic. The roadway is opened each spring once winter weather conditions have generally subsided. Motorists are advised, however, that winter storms may still occur at the highest elevations on this roadway well into the summer months, so they should be prepared for this potential when traveling this route. For information about Utah road conditions 24-hours per day, go to the UDOT Traffic Website at http://udottraffic.utah.gov or download the free Utah Traffic App, available for download in the iPhone App Store and for Android smart phones at Google Play. |
