Corinne Joyce Nabben was born October 26, 1942, in Thief River Falls, MN the daughter of Alfred and Cora (Runnestrand) Nabben. She was baptized in 1942 and confirmed in 1956 at Bethlehem Lutheran Church. Corinne attended Sunnyside Country School District 121 in Agder Township in Marshall County, MN and graduated from Lincoln High School with the class of 1960.

On December 21, 1963, Corinne was united in marriage to Duane Opdahl at Our Saviour's Lutheran Church in Thief River Falls, MN. The couple made their home in Thief River Falls and to this union five children were born, Denise, Debra, Dale, Darryl and Darren.

In her early years, Corinne worked several jobs including Arctic Cat, Valley Home, and the bird seed plant.

Corinne's most important job was to take care of her husband, children, and grandchildren. She always made sure to attend all celebrations for her family. Her joyful smile welcomed family and friends to her home.

Corinne enjoyed nature, preparing food for her family, watching the Twins, embroidery, crossword puzzles, watching the Game Show Network and Soap Operas, going to town to eat out with Duane, and loved to hold babies! Some would call her the "Baby Whisperer". Corinne was always so loving, accepting, strong willed and non-judgmental.

She was a faithful member of St. John's Lutheran Church in Thief River Falls. If she could not make it to church, Corinne would watch Pastor Harold E. Salem on television as well as the local church programs.

Survivors include her loving husband, Duane of almost 59 years of Thief River Falls; children, Denise (Todd) Anderson of Maplewood, MN, Deb (Frank) Bruggeman, Dale (Erica) Opdahl, Darryl (special friend Monica Gilmour) and Darren Opdahl all of Thief River Falls; grandchildren, Courtney (Kim) Wavra, Evan (Afton) Bruggeman, Lindsey Bruggeman, Nicholas Opdahl, Austin (Brittany Pierson) Opdahl, Matthew (Chantilly Streets) Opdahl, Miranda (Tristan Meier) Opdahl, Mason Carlson; great-grandchildren, Oaklyn, Finley, Brooks, Kirby, Twila, Remi, Julian, Penelope, Richie, Toby, Cora, Tanner, Thomas, Everleigh, Bryse, Blaine; sisters, Cheryl Srnsky and LaVonne Wegge; brother, Lavern Nabben; and many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents; brothers-in-law, Jack Srnsky and Wendell Wegge; father-in-law, Henry Opdahl and mother-in-law, Frances Opdahl.
