Her Story

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]

Isabele Grace McGrath of Grand Blanc, Michigan blessed this earth for 21 years, leaving us on December 25, 2021.

She was a beautiful soul who expressed herself in a multitude of activities. These expressions of life will forever be imprinted in our memories as we remember her pirouetting through the kitchen; rescuing the vulnerable animal, including a snake, from her job at Dotty’s Pet Store; changing her hair color like Michigan weather changes; shooting archery with grandpa at the Flint Bowmen’s Club; reading books repetitively until the bindings broke; singing her favorite songs; exposing us to alternative music groups like Black Veil Brides; and teaching us about color mixing as we admire her paintings and drawings.

But, the greatest memory will be of the little, sassy, redhead girl who grew up to bless us with an extension of herself through her baby boy, Zayden Charles.

Zayden will have many loved ones in his life to preserve and share her memory with him including Bele’s dad, Michael Sean (Sandy); mom, Roberta; brother, Alexander; grandmas, grandpa, aunts, uncles, many cousins, extended family and friends; and most importantly, the love of her life, Kody.

Her Story

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Crystal Sue Al-Sheikh Savaya, age 34, passed away after complications following the birth of her fifth child. Though her life on earth was far too short, Crystal leaves behind a legacy of love, faith, and devotion to her family.

Crystal was born in 1992 to her loving parents, Zaher Al-Sheikh and Huda Al-Sheikh. She grew up surrounded by the love of her family and carried those values into her own home.

She was the beloved wife of Matthew Savaya and the devoted mother of five beautiful children: her cherished daughter Sophia, and her beloved sons Zayn, Isaiah, Santino and newborn baby Xander.

Crystal was a loving sister to Christopher Al-Sheikh (Ronya), Charles Al-Sheikh, Amber Al-Sheikh, and Marcus Al-Sheikh. She was also the cherished granddaughter of the late George and Souad Al-Sheikh and Layla and the late Kamel Yaldo.

She is also lovingly remembered by her in-laws, Wahid Savaya and Shahrazat Savaya, and her sisters-in-law Maryann Salmo (Robert) and Maxine Miners (David).

Crystal’s gentle spirit, warm heart, and selfless love for her children defined her life. Her greatest joy was being a mother and nurturing her family with endless care and devotion.

As people of faith, we trust in God’s promise of eternal life. In our sorrow, we find comfort in the words of Christ:

“I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, even though he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.”

– John 11:25-26

Crystal’s life ended as it was lived – in love and devotion to her children – giving the ultimate gift of motherhood as she brought her newborn son into the world.

Psalm 23 – The Lord is My Shepherd

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters.

He restores my soul.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil, for You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,

and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

B’Shayna d’Marya t’nukh b’Shlama

May she rest in peace in the presence of the Lord.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]
