In Loving Memory

Dear Palmer family: My thoughts are with all of you. Your mom was so amazing. She was funny and kind. She always made me laugh. I enjoyed the short time I had to visit with her so much. She never let me leave without giving me something. She was so generous. I will never forget her. She left an influence forever on my heart. She reminded me of my own mom in that she never let anyone tell her what to do. She was so strong. Best wishes to all of you for peace and love.
