Gary COMER Obituary

COMER, Gary Scott 3.15.1960 - 8.29.2014 "Peace, Love, Joy" Gary grew up in Spokane. He battled MS most of his adult life and believed in "living each moment as if it was your last." He was a gentle soul and was everyone's best friend. He had his grandmother's green thumb and it showed in all the things he touched. Gary leaves behind the pride and joy of his life his son, Wyatt; his father, Charles F. Comer; brothers: Jerry (Patty) Comer and Aaron Comer; sisters: Marisa (Ray) Mackin and Shelly Comer; nephews: Bryce Mackin, Brandon Villanueva, Mike Comer, and Tyler Oas; nieces: Larissa Mackin, Tyees Cardwell, Andrea Kilgore, Tiana Comer, Tiffany Oas and Chandra Whitson who was like a daughter he never had. He leaves behind his beloved dog, Breezy. He is preceded in death by his mother, Patricia Comer; and brother, Michael Comer. Although he left us too quickly his spirit remains with us each time we gaze upon a flower. A celebration of his life will be held on September 14, 2014 at the Venue, 805 E. Rosewood from 3:30- 6:30pm.
