    Naomi has been my sister-in-law for the past 68 years. She was a very great artist, made several beautiful quilts, enjoyed fishing and hunting, drove there motor home, flew airplanes, a very good bowler, the list could go on and on. Heaven truly gained another angel. She will be missed by many. RIP

    I am so sorry for the loss of Naomi. She helped me when I was young and in my confusing teenage years. She was quite a lady. She will always be remembered with loving and fond memories. Rest in peace Naomi. I love you!
