To the Comly Family:
I read of Pat's death "on-line" in the Philadelphia Inquirer yesterday. Since I moved to South Carolina almost 20 years ago, I have kept in touch "with home" through friends and the Inquirer, but I hadn't heard about Pat's illness. My family always referred to the Comly's as the "First Family of Drexel Hill and St. Bernadette's!" My Mom and only sister died over five years ago within months of each other. I am grateful you have each other. Your loving family is in my prayers.

to the Comly Family, We are friends/neighbors of Meg Comly-Wisely and her family in macungie, pa. We knew many of the Comly's from the wonderful gatherings shared in the Macungie backyard and of course, the stories of their growing up. We share your saddness; may you find peace in the precious memories you all have in your hearts. Your Mom led you all by her patient, kind and loving heart; what a perfect example of motherhood. the corser family

Hi all:
I am so sorry for your loss. One of my greatest memories in my high school days was how cool your Mom and Dad were . Having 11 kids one would have thought your world would be chaos but your family was always so put together. It was quite amazing how your mom and dad managed to be so organized. Being 1 of 11 myself we could not hold a match to your togetherness. Be well and our prayers are with you all!!

Comly Family - I am a friend of Meg Comly-Wiseley. I have had the great opportunity of being Meg's friend for several years now, hearing of the wonderful love and support her family brings to her, especially her mother. Meg has shared stories over the years, stories of her wonderful mother's love and guidance. I have often thought how lucky Meg is to have such a wonderful mother to guide her through life. I am glad to know that Mrs. Comly's suffering is over, yet sad to know that she is gone. I'm sure that she will be missed tremendously; however, I'm also sure that she will continue to guide her family, only now from above.
