Opal Mills Cox

Opal Mills Cox, 85, of Trinity, went to her Heavenly Home Saturday, February 1, 2025, at her home.

She was born December 13, 1939, to the late William Nathan Mills and to the late Fleta Hedgecock Mills. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 51 years, Arthur "Bucky" Cox; brothers, Cletus Mills, Calvin Mills, Jake Mills, and Billy Mills; sisters Evelyn Driggers, and Delia Mills; and her special friend, “Shine”.

Left to cherish her memory; her daughters, Libby Cox Conrad and husband Randy of Kernersville, and Lisa Cox Bernier and husband Phil of Trinity; grandchildren, Tiffany Briggs, Preston Bernier, Lauren Edwards and husband Dalton, Richard Conrad and Allen Conrad; great grandchildren, Jackson Hicks, Lexie Carter, Billy-Wayne Edwards, Tianna Harrelson, Tripp Briggs, Terra Briggs and Talon Briggs; and numerous nieces and nephews.

An avid bargain hunter, Opal found great joy in estate sales, yard sales and thrift stores, always on the lookout for a hidden treasure. She had a love for gardening, finding peace in planting flowers that brightened her home. Her love for nature was only matched by her love for animals, especially cats. She attended Garrell Street Baptist Church as her health would allow.

Funeral Service will be 2:00PM Wednesday, February 5, 2025, in the Wright Funerals-Cremations, High Point Chapel. Burial will follow in the Floral Garden Memorial Park Cemetery.

The family will gather to receive friends 1:00-1:45PM prior to the service at the funeral home.
