Darrell Comer Obituary
Darrell Eugene Comer, 85, of Albemarle, passed away Thursday, January 25, 2024, at Tucker Hospice House in Kannapolis.
Darrell was born October 14, 1938, in North Carolina to the late Ernest Waldon Comer and the late Dallie Grace Hatley Comer.
The family will receive friends from 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm, Monday, January 29, 2024, at East Albemarle Church of God. The funeral service will follow on Monday at 1:00 pm at East Albemarle Church of God officiated by Rev. Gerald Gibson. Burial will immediately follow at the Fairview Memorial Park at 1425 East Main Street, Albemarle.
Survivors include wife of 64 years, Peggy Ann Page Comer of the home; children, Todd (Jill) Comer of New London, NC and Kimberly (David) Harward of New London, NC; grandchildren, Daniel Comer, Shannon Harward, Jacob (Holly) Comer, Andrew Harward; great-grandchildren, Memphis Comer and Beau Comer; siblings, Donald (Lucy) Comer and Pat Morgan; and many nieces and nephews.
Darrell loved Jesus with all his heart! He also loved his family and church family with all his heart. Darrell was always witnessing about Jesus. He also enjoyed his work and continued working until his recent health issues. He found joy in pruning his grapevines and working outside and he loved gospel music and Joy FM radio. Darrell was always optimistic and encouraging - whenever someone would ask how he was he would say "I'm blessed by the best!" even during his last days.
Memorials may be made to Joy FM Radio, Joy FM Gift Processing Center, P.O. Box 929, Blacksburg, VA 24063
