Obituary of Ok Nam "Okie" Kane

Ok Nam “Okie” Kane of Florida, NY, entered into rest on Wednesday, January 22, 2025. She was 83 years old. Okie was born on March 20, 1941 in Seoul, South Korea and moved to the United States in 1969 after meeting and marrying her former husband Jeffrey Kane. The two had wonderful adventures together, and in 1988, adopted their son, Martin Kane, who was the joy of her life.
Okie wore many hats, figuratively and literally. She was a homemaker, crafter, mother, and held various jobs around Orange County throughout her life. She loved fashion and was almost always donned in a lovely wide-brimmed or Homburg hat. She loved square dancing, fishing, skiing, and spending time with friends and family. She was a passionate and tenacious woman, whose laugh you would recognize from across a room. She was a devoted and proud mother, and she loved her son with every fiber of her being. She will be dearly missed and remembered for all of the years of laughter and memories.
Okie is survived by her son, Martin Kane, his wife, Lindsay (Gilbert) Kane, and her former husband Jeffrey Kane. As per her wishes, there will be a private cremation with no services.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Wide Horizons for Children Adoption Organization.
Funeral arrangements are under the direction of the T.S. Purta Funeral Home.
