Born in Fleming County on February 27, 1931, Naomi was the daughter of the late Rev. Elbert Hickerson and the late Myrtle Simons Hickerson. She lived a life rooted in love, strength, and devotion to her family and God.

She was married to Robert Souder and later to Robert Seibert, both of whom preceded her in death. She was also preceded by her son-in-law, Danny Hawkins and her two brothers, Jesse Hickerson, Sr. and Paul Hickerson.
