Elaine Orman

Elaine was born in Thomasville, March 2, 1933, a daughter of Carlyle and Hazel Nance . She was a graduate of Pilot School and Married Lester Hubert Orman, Jr. (L.H.) in March of 1949. Elaine was a active member of the Lexington Church of Christ and took great care in her role as a wife and mother. She enjoyed attending church services, cooking, baking, singing, sewing, spending time with her family and watching her children/grandchildren play sports. Her smile could light up any room and she never met a stranger. Her love and her kindness touched everyone around her-she was affectionately called "Nana" by so many.

Elaine was preceded in death by her parents, her son, Lester Hubert Orman III, her bother, Carlyle Nance and her beloved daughter-in-law, Cynthia Ward Orman.

She is survived by her husband of 71 years, L.H. Orman, Jr.; a daughter, Carol Snyder (Dennis); a son, Dean Orman (Becky Rosebrough); grandsons, Russ Snyder (Liz), Ben Snyder (Jamie), Jed Orman (Emily); granddaughter, Amber Pugh (Matthew); nine great-grandchildren, sister's in law, and all her loving nieces and nephews.
