Gregory Comer Obituary
Greg being the man he was would want you not to mourn his loss but rejoice for him. His concern would be for his family through this difficult time.
Pray for them to have comfort only God can give because his family and faith gave him strength to battle for so long.
Greg leaves this world being remembered for so many wonderful qualities. The strength to battle his cancer for over 6 years left us in awe. His love for his family and friends was immeasurable. His concern for the happiness and well-being of those around him was humbling. If you want to see a glimpse of Greg here on earth just visit with his children and see the twinkle in their eyes, the smiles on their faces, and the sounds of their uncontrollable laughter. It will warm your heart.
Greg told everyone that Jesus waited on him and would want you to know He is also waiting on you. If you love and miss Greg and don't know Jesus, there is no better time than now. Greg is waiting to see you again.
Many thanks and appreciation to all Greg's special friends; to the doctors and caring nurses from Gaston Memorial and CMC Lincolnton; and his trial doctors at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. We are so grateful for the care you have shown through the years for our loved one.
Special thanks also to Dr. Locklear, Lowry Dentistry, Dr. Stephen and Suzy Hannon, Tug Deason and all family, friends and strangers that made it possible for Greg to continue monthly treatments at MD Anderson in Houston, Texas. We are grateful and humbled by your kindness and giving.
Funeral Services will be Tuesday at 3:00 PM at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Dallas, with Pastor Sherrill Curtis and Rev. Mike Forrester officiating.
Visitation will be from 6:00-8:00 PM Monday at St Paul's Lutheran Church, 531 Hardin Rd., Dallas, NC 28034.
Interment will be at St. Paul's Lutheran Church Cemetery.

It's always painful to lose a spouse or parent, one that unique. But they stay with us in spirit don't they. I'm sorry that he's no longer with you.
It's inspiring that the prayer chain is still running strong and speaks something beautiful in a world that's in so much pain. He's become an emblem, a reminder, to pause for a moment and take account in our spirit. It calls us to remember God and our compassion as we reflect on the man we've never met and hold Greg in our hearts with compassion. What a wonderful testament for Greg to have left behind for the world, through your own son.
If it's no bother, if you're still reading these, if there's anything that you would like to be done in his name, I would love very much for you to send me information concerning something you would choose for the people to do, to honor your husband's memory, if that's a desire you have. I think his legacy, as it is, is wonderful too.
If you would like to add anything to the prayer requests that continue on or an action to take, I'll be happy to append it to the prayer request. You can @MichellRaeHeim on Facebook. There are 2 accounts, one was hacked. The active one has an graphic of me wearing a brown tunic with a cross on it, as my avatar

I had a request for prayer in 2021 and again today it has made it back to me in Tennessee. Even though God has called him home, it makes my heart happy to know that there are people still out there that will take the time to pray for someone they don't even know. God bless your family. I lost my husband, Jerry to cancer in 2020. It's hard but I know he is in no more pain.
