Naomi was a fully devoted mother, grandmother and great grandmother, along with being a wonderful friend to many. Naomi was a woman of quiet strength, immense kindness, and saw the beauty in everything and everyone around her. She was a caring grandmother not only to her own grandchildren and great grandchildren, but to any child who needed a comforting presence or gentle guidance. Her home was always open, her arms always extended, and her heart always full. She went out of her way to make sure her loved ones were taken care of - no matter the time of day or night - always putting others’ needs ahead of her own. She leaves behind a legacy of compassion, selflessness, and unwavering love - one that will bloom forever in the hearts of all who knew her. She found great joy in tending to her garden and took particular pride in her roses, which she nurtured with care and love. Her home was always surrounded by vibrant blooms, a reflection of the warmth and beauty she brought to the lives of those around her. She took special pleasure in teaching her great-granddaughter how to embroider and cook delicious homemade meals, passing down not just skills, but love and connection through each stitch and recipe. In her later years, she was lovingly cared for by her grandchildren, who stood faithfully by her side through every season - through thick and thin, with unwavering devotion and deep affection. Her grandchildren remained by her side, offering love, care, and constant support, just as she had always done for them. Naomi’s faith was a cornerstone of her life, and one of her most cherished moments was being baptized with the help of Pastor Robert. His kindness and guidance meant so much to her, and her love for God only grew stronger from that day forward. Her spirit and devotion will always be remembered. Her legacy lives on in all of the hearts she touched, the family she nurtured, and the love she gave so freely. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered, always. Though she is no longer with us, her love blooms in every garden rose, every warm meal shared, and every life she quietly made better. Her memory is a gift we will carry forever. She now rests in eternal peace, reunited with loved ones who have gone before her. Her faith, love, and gentle strength will guide us always. A Memorial Service will be held on April 28th, 2025, at Faith Chapel Funeral Home South, at 12:00 PM. Interment will be in Barrancas National Cemetery, NAS Pensacola, Florida.
