Spotlight on Centurions – Michael Comer
Michael Comer is a graduate of Kansas State University and a vice president with JE Dunn Construction. He is a member of the Centurions Spring Class of 2020. The May Task Force, of which he was a member, focused on Kansas City’s past and future. He is currently serving as chairman of the legacy committee, which is working with KVC Niles to rebuild a classroom/therapeutic garden that will feature a new High-Tunnel (aka Hoop house). HappyBottoms, Harvesters, and Wayside Waifs are among the other organizations that have benefited from Michael’s assistance. When it’s quitting time, he heads home to his wife Jennifer, their sons, Aaron and Carter, and two dogs, two rabbits, and a bearded dragon.
