7 years, Susan. Today is also Elaine's birthday. You two were very close, so today is appropriate. I still lean on you for support in times of stress. Love you and miss you.

Happy Birthday, Susan. 65 today.

Words cannot express the feelings I have while writing this. Probably the hardest thing is the emptiness of not being part of something long-term, the way we had it. Perfect? Not in a million years, but I always believed we knew and understood each other quite well, and the world was ours for the taking. We were also very comfortable with each other, and that's what I think I miss the most. It didn't come easy - we paid our dues for the relationship - and we were more grounded as a result. Being able to look at life through two sets of eyes, but with a connected mind, is not something that comes along everyday.

I've babbled enough. Just know that I miss you and I think of you. ❤

Six years, Susan, and in so many ways it feels like just yesterday...and in other ways it seems so long ago. The world is a cold, cruel place for single people nowadays...
My Isis, the Feathered Saluki I rescued, passed at 14 years old this last May. The house felt empty without her, so I went out and got a Saluki pup. She's five months old now, and Gawd a'mighty, but Zoey will be the end of me yet! lol! You'd love her. She's so much like Irs and Mirage...
Anyway, you're in my head and my heart every day. ❤ Wish I could visit you.

This was always one of your favorite songs. Now it's my song to you... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5yYMlBn_PY

Happy 64th, Susan!
Today is Thanksgiving, and one of the many things we had in common were we're both "Holiday babies"... You, Thanksgiving. Me, Easter. Nobody can ever take that away from us. ;)
-chuckle- You'd love Aura, the Bernese Mountain Dog, Elsie, the Box/Shepherd, and Isis, the Feathered Saluki. They bring life and excitement to the house you knew so well...and a mess to the yard! lol!
You're in my head and my heart.

To Susan's family,
We are so very sorry to hear of Susan's passing. Karl and I shall always cherish our times with all of you Ronnie, Susan & Steve, and Dorothy during the years of our summer pig roast picnics. It was because of you four that we continued doing the pig roast for the last 5 years . Please let us know if there should be a memorial in the future.
Praying for you...
Love,
Karl and Sharon

Your loving siblings couldn't be bothered with a proper funeral, much less even publishing an obituary of your passing, but you were a good person, a dear wife and best friend for over 30 years, and you deserve better.

Susan (Ronda) Lilly Comaty, daughter of the late Ron and Lee Lilly of Rochester Hills, Michigan, was taken from us suddenly on September 8, 2017. She was born in Pontiac and lived her life in the Rochester area. A graduate of Rochester Adams High School, Susan excelled at accounting/bookkeeping, and she was an honorary member of the Rochester Adams National Honor's Society.

While her early career was spent in banking, she spent the majority of her time working alongside her father in the Rochester Real Estate market where she made her mark in commercial and residential appraisal for Weaver Real Estate. Susan was a very down-to-Earth person, even when rubbing elbows with the city's civic leaders. A point of pride was her passing the Real Estate Appraiser's Exam on the first try, whereas many had to retake it.

After Ron's retirement in 2006, Susan worked for Tom (Autotronics) and Dorothy ("Miss Dot" of Bloomfield Montessori) Feaheny as their personal and Administrative Assistants, and bookkeeper for both companies until Tom's sudden passing in 2015. She was loved and respected by her employers and their family for her professionalism and care.

She married Steven Comaty on October 11, 1980, and they divorced in 2013. While they had no children, she loved her dogs.

Susan had a passion for hand quilting - for which she was very good, cooking, and travel in their motorhome. Laura Ingalls Wilder was of keen interest to her, and she made it a point to visit the homesteads and sites of her stories.

Susan is survived by her two sisters and brother. There was no viewing or funeral.

Please keep Susan in your thoughts as the cheerful, friendly, and fun person that she was. She was intensely loyal and devoted to her father and her extended family, and she was a good, true friend to all. God bless you, Susan.
