Susan Deborah Kanych's Obituary
Susan Deborah Kanych, affectionately known as Debbie, age 71, of East Stroudsburg, PA, passed away in her Arizona home.
Born and raised in East Stroudsburg, she graduated from East Stroudsburg High School, and went on to obtain her BA from West Chester State College.
She was an avid knitter, making sweaters, hats, and scarves for her loved ones and those in need. A voracious reader of many genres, she always had something interesting to share in conversation. In her early years she traveled to India, which sparked her interest in learning new languages, even in her last days.
She loved flowers and could always be counted on to identify them correctly, as well as observing the wonders of nature around her. She had a kind word for everyone, and her presence will be greatly missed.
She is predeceased by her father Stephen Kanych and her mother Margaret Joyce Kanych.
She will always be lovingly remembered by her sister Stephanie Hymes, brother-in-law David Hymes, niece Alisa Keiper, and grandniece Ash Keiper-Kintz.
A private memorial service for family will be held at a later date.
