Naomi was a wonderful friend and former neighbor. We miss her sparkling eyes and terrific sense of humor. We miss the good times we had together. She will always be in our hearts.

I would like to express my condolences. No doubt she will be greatly missed. At difficult times like this, I find comfort & hope in the scriptures. Acts 15:29 talks about a resurrection in which the dead will live again. I hope this comforts you too.
