Owen O. Naylor, age 86 of Biglerville, passed away March 23, 2026, at York Hospital. He was born in Biglerville to the late Charles Glenn and E. Grace (Kuhn) Naylor. Owen attended Biglerville High School and worked at the former Glen-Gery Corporation and subsequently Schindler Elevator Corporation as a welder for 24 years until retirement.
His family was his greatest joy. Sharing life lessons, instilling hard work, and values were his priorities. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing, going for rides in the country, eating ice cream and could fix anything. He was a jack of all trades and loved farming and his John Deere tractors.

Naylor-Blouse and husband, Steven of York; Judy Naylor and husband, Michael Zwally of Lancaster; Diane Edris and husband, Steven of York; Glenda Gerrick and husband, Kent of Littlestown; and Timothy Naylor and wife, Kelly of East Berlin; nine amazing grandchildren, Jennafer (Blouse) King married to Jon King; Elizabeth Zwally, Matt Edris, Jon Edris, Nick Edris, Nathan Gerrick, Laura Gerrick, Brooklyn (Naylor) Brandt married to Braden Brandt; and Lindsey Naylor; and two precious great grandchildren, Juliana King and James King.
