Sallie Mae Craig, beloved wife, sister, aunt and Nana, passed away peacefully Friday, March 22, 2024, surrounded by her family. Sallie was born March 15, 1933, in Washington, D.C., to the late Joseph E. Miller and Eudora (Milstead) Miller.

She is survived by two sisters, Evelyn Davis of Pennsylvania, and Elnora Spikes of Selbyville; and many nieces and nephews.

Growing up, Sallie and her family made cherished memories at The Shack, the family’s weekend getaway on Cobb Island. Sallie worked as a secretary at Capital Electric and was married to her devoted husband, Robert (Bob), for more than 60 years. After retirement, Sallie and Bob moved to Lewes, where they met wonderful friends, and lived their golden years at the beach. Sallie loved spending time on the boat with Bob, picking crabs, and cooking for family and friends. Sally loved her family with her whole heart and was a cherished aunt. She was a member of Fenwick Island Baptist Church.

A viewing will be held from 10 to 11 a.m., Thursday, March 28, at Fenwick Island Baptist Church, 36806 Lighthouse Road, Selbyville. Services will begin at 11 a.m., followed by a luncheon in the church fellowship hall.
