Family of the Deceased

He was married to Lily (Natour) Kabban for nearly 50 years. Together they raised three children: Elias (Michele), Rana (Jimmy) Issa, and Michael (Danielle). Their lives were his proudest accomplishment. That, to him, was success. A life well lived. In his eyes, he won the game. His greatest joy was being “Seedo” to his grandchildren: Michael Jr., Isaiah, Andrew, Jenna, Isabella, Alexander, and Abigail. To them, he passed down a way of life — dignity, love, and hard work, all given through his stories and the way he lived. In his final years, he became more reverent. His presence, even in reserve, was always deeply felt.

Biography

Salim Elias Kabban, a devoted husband, father, brother, and grandfather, passed away peacefully on April 22, 2025, in Harbor Beach, Michigan, at the age of 77. He returned home to the Lord — and to his parents, Elias and Helenah (Farhat) Kabban — after a life defined by his faith, his hard work, and the quiet strength that guided everything he did. Salim was born on October 10, 1947, in Jaffa, Palestine. Not long after, his family was displaced and resettled in Ramallah, which he called home until his last days. He was raised in a Christian household shaped by hospitality, faith, and resilience — values he lived by and passed on. In 1970, he came to the United States to build a better life. He made being an immigrant look easy, and carried that burden quietly while continuing to work for his family, right through the end. By 1978, he had made Harbor Beach home, where he and his brothers, together, operated the family grocery store, Foodtown --- a staple in the community --- and one of the ways he touched so many lives.

Kay was one of seven children and the first child of Clarence and Marjorie Wruble to dedicate her career to the family agricultural business working for many years as the Office Manager in Ubly. Kay's super hero power rested in her commitment to supporting others. She was always your biggest fan, no matter what. She was generous and truly would do anything she could to help anyone, especially her many loved ones. Her disposition grew even sunnier as she grew older. Kay was a cheerleader. She loved watching sports and rooting for her favorite teams, which usually included one of her family members. During her own athletic career, she played a roving forward on the OLLH girls basketball team in the '60's because she was quick and hard to guard. Besides spending time with her family, Kay enjoyed bowling, coaching peewee girls basketball, playing (and usually winning) euchre, and raising her dogs, Mitzi, Cassie, Sadie, Sassy, Joey and Sam. Kay was as loved as she was loving. Her little yellow house served as a social hub for her many nieces and nephews, and their friends, who spent so much of their childhood together, laughing with her. The only rule at Kay’s was, "no putting certs in your Vernors" (she said it made the kids go crazy).
