âGentlemanâ is the word Donald James Comerâs children use to describe their father.
âIf somebody was sick, he brought them soup; if somebody was feeling down or something happened, heâd always drop in,â said Daniel Comer, Donaldâs son. âFamily friends, neighbors. Thatâs just the guy he was.â
Donald also looked the part, well dressed and impeccably groomed.
âHe always projected this appearance of someone who was respectful, distinguished,â said Katherine Holliday, Donaldâs daughter. He was even tempered and never got angry.
