Adelaide Virginia “Ginny” Sabo, 89, of Orangeville went to be with her Lord on Wednesday, Dec. 27, 2017, at Emmanuel Center for Nursing in Danville, where she had been a resident for the past three years.

Ginny was born May 25, 1928, in Bloomsburg, to the late Adam E. and Agatha (Doster) Craig. She attended Benton High School after which she started her first job at Bloomsburg Mills, Inc. Following her occupation at the Mill, Ginny briefly worked as a cook at the Columbia County Prison. In her mid to late adulthood, Ginny’s professional life centered around tending to the needs of others, providing at-home nursing care to the elderly as well as caring for children with disabilities. Regardless of her occupation, Ginny’s faith was always a guiding focus in her life. She was an active member of Greenwood Christian Church, where she regularly attended Bible study and formed many lasting friendships.

Whether she was reading, gardening, animal watching, or sitting on the swing under her apple tree, Ginny delighted in her quiet and simple life in the country. Yet among the many activities and occupations she enjoyed, Ginny’s roles as a mother and grandmother were what she treasured most, and the time she spent with her children and grandchildren will be forever cherished. Her loving soul, witty banter, lively spirit and selfless devotion will never be forgotten.

She is survived by her daughter, Christine Sabo, of Shamokin; three grandchildren: Eric Liken of Danville, Robert Booth Jr., and his wife, Olivia, Houston, Texas, and Erin Booth of Baltimore, Md.; two brothers: Robert Craig and his wife, Janine, of Clearlake, Calif., and Donald Craig and his wife, Pam, of Catawissa; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her daughter, Diane Booth; her son, Albert Sabo III; and her brothers: Albert J., Raymond R., Charles R., and John W. “Bud” Craig.

A memorial service will be held in the spring, Ginny’s favorite season, for family and friends to gather and celebrate her life.
