Sally Grimes

Sally Grimes, age 76 of Reisterstown, passed away on October 22, 2021 from complications resulting from a fall. She attended Mount Airy public schools and met her husband David William Grimes at a church function. They were married for 57 years and lived in Germany, and Rochester, New York before settling in Reisterstown. Preceded by her father and mother, the late Oliver and Anna Hoffman, sisters Kathleen Rew and Ethel Daugherty. She is survived by her two sons, Scott Grimes and Dwayne Grimes (Kim Eddinger), and granddaughter Ariel, sister Betty Fleming and brother Jake Hoffman, step- brother Michael Sponseller, many beloved nieces and nephews, and her dog Louie.
Sally worked at Lachman’s and Burke’s Pharmacies in Reisterstown where she developed meaningful relationships with many community members. Throughout her life she delivered medicine to under privileged customers, befriended them, and stayed and talked with them for hours. She loved shopping at yard sales, spoiling her dogs, working on her Koi pond, gardening, cooking, and so many arts and crafts. She was a beloved team member at the Sykes Toy Project which she fondly referred to as “Toy Room”; there she volunteered her time lovingly preparing used toys for children and enjoying the company of friends. She found much joy having lunch with her friends and spending time with her family and many dogs she called “fur babies”. She will be remembered for her open friendly spirit, spunky sense of humor, and compassionate nature.
The family will receive friends on Thursday, October 28th 2021 3 to 6 Pm at BURRIER-QUEEN FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORY, P.A., Where funeral services will be held Friday 11 AM. Interment Pine Grove Cemetery, Mt. Airy, MD
