Burnas Naomi Hodson

Burnas Naomi Hodson, 84, of Flat Rock, IL, died at 10:45 p.m. on Saturday, September 8, 2018 at Heritage Health in Robinson, IL. She was born March 13, 1934 in Herrick, IL, the daughter of Eli Sarver & Ida (Black) Sarver, both of whom preceded her in death. She married William “Bill” Hodson on September 6, 1950 and he preceded her in death on April 22, 2017. She was also preceded in death by two sisters and four brothers. She is survived by her two sons, Terry & wife Marlene Hodson and Paul Hodson; by her daughter, Diane & husband Pat Burnett; by 10 grandchildren; as well as several great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. She grew up in Dixie, IL, where her mother ran a country store for a number of years. Burnas dedicated her life to caring for her home and all who lived in it. The kitchen, in particular, was her domain, and her family were the beneficiaries of her outstanding cooking. She wasn’t unfamiliar with working the fields alongside Bill, either. In other words, Burnas Hodson was the “whole package”. She lived a good and purposeful life and will be missed by all who loved her. She was a longtime member of the Highland Church of Christ in Robinson. A visitation will be held from 12:00-2:00 p.m. on Friday, September 14th at the Goodwine Funeral Home in Flat Rock. A funeral service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Friday at the funeral home with Pastor Shane Bopp officiating the service. Burial will follow in the Jones Cemetery, rural Flat Rock.
