19581 She married Wahlstrom as Opal Mae Rosengren.

Opal Wahlstrom, 79, of rural Pelican Rapids, died Saturday, Dec. 23, 2006, peacefully and surrounded by her family at the Good Samaritan Center in Pelican Rapids.

Opal spent almost her entire life working with nature and animals, helping her husband raise strawberries and raspberries at Wahlstrom Berry Farm in Maplewood Township near Pelican Rapids, and taking care of a number of pets.

She was mother to Maureen (Bruce) Johnson of rural Pelican Rapids and Nancy (Jay T.) Olson of Fergus Falls, and grandmother to Taylor, Bailey and Connor Olson, all of Fergus Falls.

Opal was a member of Central Lutheran Church. She made numerous friends from all over the country who came every year for strawberries and raspberries. She immensely enjoyed being outside, working with her hands, talking with everyone who came to their farm, reading and doing word puzzles. She loved her family very much and was so very proud of her grandsons. She was also proud of her German heritage and her work ethic. She was kind to animals and loved her cats, especially Dolly.

Opal was a survivor, having lived during the Great Depression, having fought cancer and other illnesses and rarely complaining about anything. She loved being on the farm and having her family with her. She will be greatly missed.
