Of my few years working for Giant I didn’t have too many positive associations, most were just kids in their first job but Sally was different. She helped her coworkers and customers and always had time to talk. We differed a lot in thoughts and opinions but that didn’t matter because her character and deeds transcended all that. I know she had a rough life but was still always kind and understanding. I will miss talking to her on my weekly Supermarket runs. My condolences to her family.
Sally was honestly one of the most genuine, warmest people I have ever met. She was a nearby neighbor of mine, and I met her about 10 years ago. I always marveled at her optimism (even before her cancer diagnosis) and her love of God. She was always full of vigor and inspiration. Life had dealt her some very difficult blows, but she handled every obstacle with grace, dignity, and perseverance. She fought the good fight (and won). I know now she is at peace with our Lord and Savior. He must have needed an angel, but we were so lucky to have her as our angel on this earth. If I could count on one hand the greatest people I have ever known, Sally was one of them. ‘Well done, good and faithful servant’ (Matthew 25:23).
Sally was a familiar stranger to me, but seeing the notification of her passing had me compelled to write.
I am so very sorry for your loss. I am a regular customer at Giant and I saw Sally often. She was such a hard worker and was always extremely helpful. We would frequently have small chit chat at the register. I will miss seeing her. God Bless you and your family.
I worked with Sally for a year at Giant. She was always able to bring a smile to my face. I used to sit with her and listen to her rant on and on about all the things that she didn’t agree with on Facebook.
This is such a big loss for me and her family. Sally was always one of the happiest people I’ve been lucky to have known. She was such fun to sing with! Missing her and prayers for the family.
She was a wonderful person. Will miss her dearly.
So sorry for the loss of your sister Amy….We are keeping you in our prayers…
Sally will be missed by so many people, including her co-workers, friends, family, and Giant customers
Oh! how I loved Sally Crabbe!! Why God took this kind, generous, caring spirit from us, I do not know. What I do know is Sally is with God and will always carry big,big angel wings; for her spirit truly was of God. I meet Sally as a customer of Giant & I looked so forward to our fifteen minute or so moments during my shopping of just catching up. She loved her family & spoke so highly of her precious children & loved her precious grandchild. Sally was pure JOY! & simply loved life! President Trump too was a fun shared pastime for us, & Sally was sharp in her knowledge of what was going on with our Country and keeping abreast of current events. She was a true patriot who loved this great country. Sally told me she loved to sing prior to her beating cancer but never looked back with sadness because the chemo took that away. Sally always looked forward with great courage & grace. I simply adored her & will miss her greatly as will everyone who was blessed enough to cross her path & feel her unforgettable smile. Sally made a mark on so many hearts. She will sorely be missed. ❤️????????????????????♀️????
