Krystyna Grycic Bayley

Krystyna Grycic Bayley was born to Eugene and Vera Grycic on June 19, 1945 in Germany. She came to California in 1950.  She is preceded in death by her parents and is survived by her two children, Nina and Micah Bayley, her son’s partner Tracey Eipper and her grandson Elijah Ramirez.

Krystyna was an educator in the Sacramento City Unified School District for 28 years.  Her dedication to education was made evident by her creative enrichment of the learning environment of her classrooms. She performed her role as teacher with love and enthusiasm.   She inspired her students with her boisterous humor. Her stories will be long remembered.

Above all, Krystyna cherished her family.  Dearest memories of her are those of singing as she played piano and celebrating together.  Long car rides to the ocean and all over California with her kids were her joy.

Generous and compassionate, Krystyna was a loyal friend. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Mom, we love you and miss you, and we’re glad your adventurous spirit is finally free.
