Naomi was born August 8, 1918 in Jennings, Oklahoma the daughter of George Lee and Josie Ann (Morgan) Trimble. Naomi was raised and received her education in Jennings. On August 26, 1933 she was united in marriage to Roy William Hanlon in Drumright, Oklahoma. The couple established their initial home in Jennings where they resided for many years and had one daughter, Mary Ann. During the next several years, the couple moved their family frequently as Roy followed work in the oil industry. Throughout this time, however, they always maintained a residence in Jennings because that is where they truly considered home. After the death of Roy in 1994, Naomi continued to reside in Jennings until May of 2008 when she moved to Glencoe to be closer to her daughter. Naomi had many hobbies including, working jigsaw puzzles, sewing, growing flowers as well as fishing. One of her favorite pastimes, however, was teaching others how to sew; especially her family. She made many articles of clothing for herself and family. Holidays were an important part of her life and she always looked forward to them. Mrs. Hanlon will always be remembered as a loving and caring mother and grandmother who thoroughly enjoyed spending her time visiting with her friends and family. Naomi passed away at her home in Glencoe, Oklahoma on Thursday, April 16, 2009 at the age of ninety.
