of their nine children. Herb and Naomi were married

caring, kind and generous nature. Naomi welcomed
everyone into her home and no one left without a full
stomach and a warm heart.

Fay (Bea), her sisters Leila (Butch), Wanda (Perry) and
Debbie (Ken), her children Bob (Deb), Randy, David
(Tina) and Jeff (Kittie), her grandchildren Chad, Scott,
