ALTAMONT – Susan Granzow Batty, 68, passed away from a pulmonary disease on Tuesday, August 28, 2018.  Susan grew up in Fulton, NY and graduated from G. Ray Bodley High School. She went on to receive a BA from SUNY Albany. She enjoyed many years working for the New York State Office of Mental Health, initially as a housing developer in the Hudson River region and then as assistant director of local operations statewide.  Sue met her husband, David Batty, in 1968 and the two fell in love. They were married and spent 46 loving years together. He will miss her dearly and will never have another love as deep and lasting.  Sue was a kind and humble person who was always selfless and generous towards others. She was always positive and saw the best in people. Sue enjoyed traveling the country and world with her husband. When home she enjoyed gardening and spending special time with her sister as well as her nieces and their families.

In addition to her husband David, Susan is survived by her beloved twin sister Barbara Pentlen (Stephen), brothers William Niver (Jean), and Gordon Granzow.  She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews. She was predeceased by her sister Nancy Aylor (Richard).
