Frosty Is No Snowman
Release date: 2023
By trade, William “Frosty” Comer was a hospital pharmacist and a military man. But there is much more to his story, and to his life, that is told in this book, the first-non sports book in the Kerry Eggers collection.
Comer is a family man — he and his wife of 55 years, Vicki, have two daughters and five grandchildren — and a live wire renowned for getting things done, and doing them well. He is an entrepreneur, a philanthropist, a believer and an achiever,
The Comers’ outside passion is Oregon State and, in particular, Beaver athletics. Frosty is past president of Our Beaver Nation, a fund-raising arm of OSU athletics. The Comers bleed orange and black, pure and simple.
“Frosty is No Snowman” is a motivational tale that showed an awful lot can be accomplished by determination and hard work. It’s ethos that carried both Frosty and “son” Brian Cook to unforeseen heights. Can do? Indeed.
In these pages you’ll also read about the Comers’ “foster son,” Brian Cook, and his rise from near-high school washout to founder and CEO of Cook Solutions Group, one of the state of Oregon’s most successful businesses over the past two decades. Cook’s creed has been to treat both customers and employees right, borrowing from a like philosophy learned from Frosty many years ago.
Frosty, too, came from humble beginnings. “Frosty’s No Snowman” is a motivational tale that shows an awful lot can be accomplished by determination and hard work. It’s an ethos that carried both Frosty and Brian to unforeseen heights. Can do? Indeed.
