ollette Salon Rosner, 93, of 
West Bloomfield, died Sept. 
17, 2024. 
A beautiful person inside and out, 
Collette Salon Rosner led a full and 
most productive life. 
She was truly loved by 
all who knew her. 
She married the love 
of her life, Bernard 
Rosner, whom she 
met at Wayne State 
University as they 
crossed paths from the Music 
School and Law Quad. Fortunate to 
have nurtured lifelong friends from 
Detroit school days, together they 
led busy social and cultural lives.
 Collette was a Phi Beta Kappa 
recipient and member of Mu 
Phi Epsilon International Music 
Fraternity. As a solo pianist, she 
performed with colleagues from the 
Birmingham Musicale. The high-
light of her performing years was 
playing with her daughters Cindi 
and Kim as the Rosner Trio.
 Collette was the longest employee 
in the history of Temple Beth El. 
She was hired by the temple’s music 
director, her professor at WSU, 
Jason Tickton. She was not only 
the pianist for the religious school, 
but also the music teacher of the 
Temple Beth El Nursery Program.
 As a private piano instructor for 
more than 65 years, Collette was 
loved by all her hundreds of stu-
dents, young and old. There was 
never an outing to dinner, concert, 
play or grocery store where Collette 
was not recognized and stopped 
by a former student and/or family 
member, who would express their 
love and appreciation of their rela-
tionship with her. She was indeed 
a pillar of the Metropolitan Detroit 
community.
 Collette was a perfectionist 
and took pride in her appearance, 
always coordinating everything 

down to her bracelets and earrings. 
She loved her home and so enjoyed 
entertaining family, friends and 
colleagues with homemade pastries 
in an elegant manner.
 She was the beloved wife of the 
late Bernard Rosner. Collette loved 
her children, Cindi Rosner, Kelly 
Roberts (Michael Roberts) and Kim 
Rosner Saxe (Dr. Stephen Saxe). 
She openly loved and welcomed her 
sons-in-law, Pat Kelly, Stephen Saxe 
and Michael Roberts. Her delight 
and joy was her only grandchild, 
Colton Rosner Kelly, and his part-
ner, Marino Mossa. Collette is also 
survived by many loving nieces, 
nephews, cousins, friends and stu-
dents.
 She was the loving sister of the 
late Renee (the late Edward) Stone; 
the devoted daughter of the late 
Ben and the late Karlene Salon; the 
dear sister-in-law of the late Violet 
Erlich and the late Joel (the late 
Sarah) Rosner. 
 Collette loved and appreciated all 
the friends and personnel from All 
Seasons West Bloomfield, Hospice 
of Michigan, Jewish Hospice & 
Chaplaincy Network and daily 
caregivers from Sharing Hearts. 
Her kindness and love will be 
missed but remembered and cher-
ished by all.
 Interment was at Beth El 
Memorial Park. Contributions may
