Judith Kyaw Obituary
Wilmington - Judith Ann Kyaw, age 79, of Wilmington, DE, passed peacefully at home with her family by her side on Monday, November 23, 2020. Judy was born on January 27th, 1941, in Charlotte, NC. She met David Kyaw as a teenager in Charlotte, and they quickly fell in love. After they wed, they traveled all across the United States together for David's job before settling down in Wilmington, DE. There, they enjoyed each other for the remainder of their beautiful 63-year marriage.
Judy was incredibly loving, caring and creative. She loved and appreciated the little things in life, like the leaves changing color in the fall or the passing tune of a bird. She adored all things dainty and sweet--bunnies, birdhouses, flowers and pastels. She was an incredible baker and cook, most notably known for "Mom mom's green beans." Charismatic and intentional, she approached everything and everyone with a caring and gentle touch. She will be forever missed by her entire family.
Judy was a proud and loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She is survived by her husband, David Kyaw; her children, Dave Kyaw and Angela Tiberi; her daughter-in-law and son-in-law Diane Kyaw and Dave Tiberi; her granddaughters: Danielle Kyaw, Alexis Tiberi, Angela-Marie Tiberi, and Ariel Tiberi; and her sisters, Carol Turner and Sally Frieboes. She was preceded in death by her parents; and her beloved aunts: Martha, Mary and Billie.

Judy was a dear friend and will always be thought of. We shared many'a cup of coffee and tuna sandwich. We frequently shared babysitting times. On occasion she cut my hair; she was good. We did ceramics together. We enjoyed relating stories of our growing children and grandchildren. David (husband) always welcomed us in their home. We both took pride in owning VW Beatles at the same time. I have many stories in my memory-bank of this wonderful family. I am blessed to have known them. RIP, Judy.

I remember the Kyaw family from Eastburn Acres, they were such friendly kind people, always saying hello or waving to us kids as we walked by their home. I am so sorry for your loss. May Mrs. Kyaw RIP.

Judy, thank you for your long friendship that I was lucky to have the joy of. You were the special person who could always make me smile even when a smile was hard to come by.
For your friendship and the luck of having to have known you for most of my life, I truly thank you for making my world a better place.
Rest well my friend. You will be remembered and missed by your family and friends.
