Betty Zych, family patriarch

October 26, 2021

Betty Zych, 89, of Lewes passed away Thursday, Oct. 21, 2021, at Harborhealth Care & Rehabilitation Center, in Lewes.  She was born Jan. 24, 1932, in Far Hills, N.J., daughter of the late Malcolm and Elsie B. (Morris) Thompson.

Betty was a homemaker. She and her husband built a beautiful life together, including the addition of their children along the way who were her greatest pride and joy. While she will be missed, we are at peace knowing that she is once again united with her beloved husband of 63 years, Robert C. Zych Sr. who passed away in 2014. This loving couple, who were rarely apart in life, will be together forever once again.

Betty was a breast cancer survivor. She loved chocolate candy and the color red.  Betty spent most of her time caring for those she loved, and was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother and  will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Betty is survived by a daughter, Beverly Thompson (Charles); her sons: Robert Zych Jr., Brian Zych (Michelle) and Blair Zych (Carly); her grandsons: Mark Thompson, Michael Thompson, Jason Zych, Daniel Thompson, and Christopher Zych; her granddaughters: Shannon Ciconte, Sondra Ambler, Kelsey Hadder, Brandi Tomasetti, Sydney Zych and Sophia Zych; and her 13 great-grandchildren.
