I wish that I did have a photo to share with Naomi's family. When my husband and I moved to Banner Avenue as a newly married couple in 1971 Naomi became my neighbor. We shared many cups of coffee and chats. Her door was always open and she always made me feel welcome in her home. I got to know her daughter Cathy and my children played with Cathy's kids when visiting grandma. When Naomi moved from the neighborhood she was missed and I was grateful whenever I ran into her in town. Our deepest sympathy to all of Naomi's family.
With all our love...Dave & Sue

Although I knew her mainly as part of a dinner group, she was alway a happy and wonderful person. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Naomi Lee took me under her wing and I have considered her Mom. She was a strong, beautiful woman of God, always thinking of others before herself. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of our Lord, family and friends.

Naomi Lee was such an encouraging and happy friend. She always had a smile on her face, even when she wasn't feeling her best.
We look forward to the time soon, when "sickness and death will be no more." - Rev 21:4. Until then, we pray that the "God of Comfort" (2 Cor 1:3) will be with your family in this difficult time. Agape, Pat Banales
