A memorial service will be held for Naomi A Komarek who passed away June 26th 2020 of natural causes. The service will be held on Friday August 6th 2021 at 11:00 AM at East Lawn Palms Mortuary & Cemetery, on Grant Road in Tucson.
Born March 5th 1930, Naomi was raised in Riverside Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. She married Howard Komarek and moved to Arizona. In Tucson, she and her husband helped run Castle Rock Ranch, the Komarek family ranch on East Tanque Verde Road during the 1950’s and 1960’s. After the ranch was sold, Naomi worked at various financial institutions in Tucson. She was best known as the manager of the Westerner Club of Western Savings and Loan.
Naomi is predeceased by her husband, Howard Komarek and her daughter, Kathleen Komarek. She is survived by her sister, Natalie Anderson of Riverside Illinois, her son, Scott Komarek, and her granddaughter, Mikayla Komarek, both of Raleigh North Carolina.
Naomi was an active member of The Tucson Cowbelles organization throughout her adult life. She held various offices and organized events for the group over the six decades she was a member. Additionally, she enjoyed her time as a member of the Sun Bonnets Garden Club, and the Catalina Junior Women’s Club. She was an alumna of Delta Gamma Sorority.
Naomi loved being surrounded by family and friends and she never met anyone whom she didn’t instantly call a friend. There was always a seat around the table for anyone who wanted one. She never hesitated to take in strays of the furry or human variety. Her favorite pastime was being with friends.
For those who are unable to attend in person, the service will be live-streamed on Facebook through the following link.
