We Remember
HABIB, Sally Rene
April 19, 1966 — August 9, 2015
An angel on earth is what Sally was. On August 9, 2015 Sally was called back to her rightful place in heaven to be with God and her mother Rafea and brother Tony. Sally leaves behind her loving children, Andrew, Dominic and Jordell. She will be their angel, always watching over them. Sally is also survived by her loving father Andrew (Marie) of Kelowna; brothers and sisters, Simone (Nemr) of Calgary, David (Becky) of Kelowna, Mike (Bonnie) of Calgary, Sammy (Lana) of Calgary, Dale (Leanne) of Kelowna; numerous nieces, nephews and extended family all of whom loved her dearly and surrounded her during her final days. Sally was born in Calgary, Alberta on April 19, 1966 and in 1979 her family moved to Kelowna, BC. It was here that Sally started her own family and was blessed to have three amazing children of whom she would do anything for. Sally’s life would seem short to those that did not know her, but those of us touched by Sally know that her spirit will forever be branded in our hearts. Her beautiful personality, her love for people, life, and God brought so much happiness to many lives. Although she wasn’t quite ready to say goodbye, Sally knew her mission on earth was fulfilled. She gave us all such courage and strength and reminded us just how precious life is. Sally loved us all unconditionally, she lived for us and now she lives in us. A funeral service will be held on Monday, August 17, 2015 at 11:00 am at Trinity Baptist Church, 1905 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the BC Cancer Foundation http://bccancerfoundation.com/.

So sorry to hear about Sally, please accept my condolences and especially to her children.
Sally was such a beautiful person, inside and out. One of the most caring, strongest woman I have ever met. She affected so many with her smile, encouragement and love. We lost our Angel but God has gained a true gift. Miss you Sal 🙁
Someone as special as Sally will never be forgotten. She will forever be in our hearts and forever missed.
Dear Andrew, Dominic, Jordell,and the Habib family,
I first met Sally when she was a friend of my sister’s and then again when she brought Diminic to my preschool as a four year old. Sally was always larger than life, with a genuine smile and hello for everyone. Not once would she pass by without talking to you and asking how you were. Even though sometimes she was facing great personal battles. She seemed to know everyone and shared her spirit with all she met. The world really did loose an angel. I’m very sorry for your loss.
Our deepest sympathies go out to all our cousins. Sally was a fun loving person who enjoyed life to the fullest. She will live on through her 3 amazing children. May God Bless love you cuz
My deepest condolence for your loss. Our prayers are with you through this difficult time. She will be watching over her children and loved ones.
I went to school with Sally from grade eight and on…..she was always so friendly and sweet to everyone. What a wonderful legacy she has left in her much too short life.
So sad to hear this news, I will always have fond memmories of the beautiful soul she was!
Hugs and kisses to her family! XO

Your mom was such a fighter and even faced with this terrible disease again, she thought first of her children. I admired her strength and kind heart. I will miss her hugs. My deepest condolences to her family especially her children.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family especially the children.She truly was our angel of love.
May God Bless our Sister Angel Sal & her loving family, especially Jordell. Loving memories were shared with Sal & her lovely daughter during trip to Calif & spending special VIP day at SanFran Zoo! Amazing to see Mother & Daughter share life memories together as one. I will always hold these memories close to my heart & Thank you Jesus in his mighty name Amen
I met Sally at Dr Balls office. I always thought about her and wondered how she was doing. She was such a nice person and spent time to chat with me. I am so sorry for all the family. My deepest condolences to all of you.
To Sally’s children and family Jim and I send our deepest condolences for your loss she will be greatly missed by us both . All our love
Our thoughts and prayers are with Andrew, Dominic, Jordell and all of Sally’s family and friends. She was such an inspiration to all of us! She loved life and all it had to offer. Please remember all of your memories with her and share them with everyone so that she will live on in all of us. She was such a kind, caring and charming individual and shall always be loved by everyone! May she rest in peace in God’s loving arms.

SALLY, you will be missed by the world! You were a strong lady with a loving personality that cared for all people near and far. Words cannot describe what you meant to me!
On behalf of my family I would like to offer my condolences first and foremost to her family and then to everyone on earth because she truly cared for everyone! Sally was genuinely a lady that would love or help anyone. She could talk about any topic to anyone at any time. She was a passionate and comforting soul and will be missed dearly by anyone that she met or talked to.
May she rest in peace.

My in-laws live up the street from Sally, it was my last stop before heading to Alberta for work, I would stop at Sallys and tell her I was leaving my family to go to work, please say a prayer for me and she would. I will miss that but now I have a guardian angel to watch over me on my next trip to the patch. To Andrew, Dom, and Jordell and the entire Habib family my deepest condolences L&R
Our deepest condolences we have very fond memories of all the family out here in Winfield when Sally’s mom and dad owned Happy Valley pizza…RIP Sally Im sure you are with your mom Sincerely George and Nadine Kozub
my deepest condolences to the family and Sally’s children. I knew Sally since we were young girls in Calgary and then later when both our family’s moved to the Okanagan. I will always remember Sally as fun, caring, and generous. RIP Sally
We are so sorry for the loss of such a beautiful person and neighbour. We will miss you Sal. Condolences to the entire Habib family
Jordell, Dominic, & Andrew…I am so sorry the loss of your mom. I first met your mom when my son Tyler started preschool with Dominic. From there I seemed to meet up with her everywhere…soccer games, the store etc and then again when my daughter Alyssa was in Jordell’s classes at SKE. Your mom was such a bright, kind & positive lady and I always enjoyed our chats. She loved you more than anything. I hope your happy memories of your times together shine and bring a smile to your face and ease your pain a little.
My deep sympathy for the family. I knew Sally just by another friend, she always talked of her deep love of her children. It was an honour to have met her
I am so blessed that Sally was in my life, and has touched and blessed so many lives over the years. She will be terribly missed by numerous friends and family and her passing leaves heavy hearts. I know it broke her heart to leave her children, but knowing they have each other for comfort is a blessing for each of them.
Our deepest sympathies to all the Habib family. We met Sally in the mid 80’s. Every time we saw her she had the “Glow of an Angel”. Sally truly is an Angel and is in the heart and soul of all who knew her.
So sorry to hear about the passing of Sally. She was a special person. She always had a bright smile, friendly attitude and a big heart. She had an incredible will to live, strong belief in God and loved her children and family immensely. May she rest in peace.
Although I only knew her briefly she definitely left a lasting impression. Her kindness,laughter and spirit all very unique. Sincerest condolences to the Habibs and extended family.
To the children and family of Sally Habib, my deepest sympathy for your loss. I worked at KGH with your mom way back in the day. We became good friends there and although we would see each other from time to time, she always greeted me with open arms. What a beautiful soul!! Love ya Sal
Dom I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a sweet heart she made me laugh anytime I saw her. May you , your brothers and sister and family find peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your heart. Love Michelle, Maria Gunn and Darren
My deepest condolences to the Habib family. Sally is such an inspiration to me to keep going no matter what challenge. She believed in me when I didn’t and I have so much gratitude for being blessed to have her in my life. She truly taught me what the expression means to live like your dying. She is a true angel on Earth as she now is in Heaven.
I am so sad to hear this news. I will miss seeing Sally’s smiling face and her big hugs. We can all learn from her strength and courageousness. I wish you all peace and strength through this incredibly difficult time.
I’m sharing a pic of Sally and me with “Santa Brian” (a regular customer at Happy Valley Restaurant) circa 1982 I think.
Sorry to hear about your loss, stay strong. Mike Maruszczak
