Punctuation for adjectives

Hi. Please help me. Are they correct? I realize the sentences might be awkward. I like to know more about the correctness of the punctuation (as opposed to whether the content is clearly expressed or not -- of course, I would appreciated it if you could correct the content, too.)

1. He is a gracious, understanding, benevolent person. -- Could it be written "He is

a gracious, understanding and benevolent person"?

2. He has a good, admirable, etc. reputation.
