    Dear Buzzy and Family, Naomi was a good friend to my Mom, Pauline Leis for many years. They spent many hours together at the casino. They shared their neighborhood and shared each others company. We will remember Naomi as kind, funny and welcoming. You were blessed to have her. Susan Leis, Pauline Leis and Family.
