Lama Comer, 57, leads a busy life. She works 40 hours per week, as she has for the past 29 years, making blue jeans and denim overalls at the Key Manufacturing Co. plant in Tompkinsville. She and her husband, Hazel, were married in 1940 when Lama was only 15. Together they raise Belgian horses to show and sell, and their living room is decorated with trophies and ribbons their horses have won. “These horses are what gave us a lot of friends,” Lama said. But she said they probably won’t show any more horses, although their son, Charles, might if one of the mares foals. “I wish I didn’t have to work away from home,” Lama said. “I’d like to be at home–just a regular housewife–and keep everything just the way I want it.”Lama Comer, 57, leads a busy life.
