Reidsville, NC - It is with profound sorrow that we announce the death of Mrs. Naomi Lee Galloway, 1140 Lawsonville Avenue, Reidsville, North Carolina. On Saturday morning, March 23, 2024, Naomi Lee Galloway departed this life at the Penn Center Nursing Facility in Reidsville, North Carolina.
Born on June 27, 1928, in Rockingham County, North Carolina, she was the offspring of the late Mary Adams Lee and Willie Lee, Jr. Embracing life with wisdom, perseverance, and enthusiasm, she faithfully and diligently served “Jehovah God.” On July 11, 1954, she was baptized and became a faithful member of the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses.
Naomi was employed at Brookside Shirt Factory, Chase Bag, and Highgrove Long Term Care Center in Reidsville, North Carolina. Her favorite pastime was cooking for her family and friends. She was the best cook; always preparing delicious meals for the family. In addition, she loved gardening and watching game shows like “Family Feud” which was one of her favorites.
"Big Mama," as she was affectionately called by family and friends, was an incredible person. She loved life and never met a stranger, always with her beautiful smile. But, most of all she loved her family very much.
Throughout the years, she always reached out to family and friends when they were in a time of need. She impacted the lives of many, making her an inspiration to all. Her presence will truly be missed, but the wisdom and love she shared will remain in our hearts forever.
In addition to her parents, Naomi was preceded in death by her beloved husband: Onnie E. Galloway; her beloved daughter, Geraldean G. Robinson; and her grandson, Gregory L. Robinson.
Naomi Lee Galloway leaves to cherish her memories: a loving and caring daughter, Wanda G. Gillespie (Late John), Greensboro, North Carolina; a loving and caring son, Oma E. Galloway (Nancy), Greensboro, North Carolina; three grandsons: Everett Tyrone Baize, Greensboro, North Carolina, Kenneth A. Robinson, Jr. (Tonya), Colonial Beach, Virginia, and Kelvin D.
