After nearly 33 years of marriage, Jack died in 1972. In 1974 Naomi rekindled a friendship with a fellow high school classmate from Branson, Arthur Clemons. She and Art were married for thirty-four years and lived in Sacramento, California. Art died in 2009 and Naomi moved to Springfield to live near her son, Howard Cavner, and his family.
