Naomi a Virtuous Woman

A woman who told the truth no matter what the consequences, A woman who kept news, when it was not her confidence to reveal A woman who studied her religious books, and believed in forgiveness Virtuous woman who extended kindness to others in a variety of ways. Naomi McCormick was loving and giving like her Biblical namesake. She could be trusted, so many told her their innermost secrets. She kept their counsel, listening, but not preaching. She was a woman who knew how to listen without trying to fix or help. I watched her give herself in a variety of ways to many people. She gave her time, her talents, her appreciation, and her energy. She gave for eighty-eight years, until there was nothing left to give. I learned much from Naomi, for she was my mother.
