Judith Ann Partyka, retired bank manager

March 24, 2021

On Sunday, March 21, 2021, Judith Ann Partyka, loving wife and mother, entered into eternal life at age 82.

Her spirit is carried on by her loving husband of 44 years, Alexander Joseph Partyka; her daughters Angie Lord (Frank) LeAnna Nguyen; her sons Andrew (Michelle) and Duane Partyka; former daughter-in-law Marsha; along with grandchildren, Morganne Partyka, Alden Partyka, Alex Lord and Jonathan Nguyen; and great-granddaughter Lillie Sweeten. 

Judy was born Feb. 25, 1939, in Upland, Pa., to Clayton and Mary Eleanor Poole. She worked for NCR in Millsboro, Sussex Trust and Delaware National Bank, where she retired as assistant bank manager. Judy graduated from Ridley Township High School in 1956, and maintained close contact with many of her classmates, aka the “dirty dozen.”

 Judy had a passion for the Lord and his works.  She loved participating in church activities and Bible study at Wesley United Church with Pastor Tim, Nora Serman and other. She also loved bird watching, nature, and creating crafts with inspiration from God’s beautiful landscapes. She was very much cherished by friends and family and admired by those she encountered. She was an avid music lover of Elvis Presley. She was known for her quick wit, her infectious smile, as well as her kind and compassionate spirit. 

The family greatly appreciates Dr. Spellman for his care and compassion as well as the staff at Beebe, especially the nurses who went above beyond showing grace and support. A heartfelt thank you to family and friends for your support when we needed it most. 

A celebration of life will be held Sunday, March  28, at the Wesley United Methodist Church in Georgetown, 102 E. Laurel St., at 1 p.m.  Food and fellowship to follow - dress is casual.
