Naomi Violet Dick (nee Mott) passed away at the Chatham-Kent Hospice on Thursday April 20, 2023 after a short battle with cancer. She was born in Chatham on September 13, 1931, the daughter of the late Art and Thelma Mott.
Naomi was the loving Mother of Ralph (Gayle), Darrell (Kathy), Kevin (Lisa) and Brian (Sherry). She was predeceased by her daughter Brenda Poile (2012), her infant daughter Diane and their father Edsel Dick (2019). Proud Grandmother of Cory (Teri), Shauna (John), Mike (Roxanne), Joel, Jason (Cathryn), Angela, Sarah, Mackenzie and Chris. Great Gramma to Asher, Avery, Adrianna, Evan, Elijah, Payton, Bree, Julia, Natalie and Kaydence. Dear sister of Gord and the late Bill and Margaret. She will be fondly remembered by her nephew Jim Mott and many extended members of the Dick family.
Naomi was a second mother to many of our friends growing up. We will always be grateful to Johnny and Barb Chapple who hosted Mom for many of Johnny’s delicious Italian dinners and for the many times they took her on shopping trips over to the states.
Mom was an equal opportunity Mother. There were no favourites for her as she loved us all the same. At 91 years of age, she was still fiercely independent, living alone in her apartment building at 65 Riverview Drive, Chatham. She kept herself sharp and busy doing puzzles, intricate colouring books, dried flowers and her latest passion, making crafts. Her beautiful handwriting was also a skill that she excelled at. She still had her driver’s license and she liked to take short drives out into the country. She enjoyed visiting with her oldest friend Molly Cross and her family.
Thank you to the staff at the Chatham-Kent Hospice for keeping Naomi comfortable in her final days.
Cremation has taken place and a celebration of Naomi’s life will be held at the Merlin Kinsmen Hall on Saturday May 13, 2023 from 2:00 – 6:00 p.m.
Donations made in memory of Naomi to the Chatham-Kent Hospice, or the Salvation Army would be appreciated.
