I was shocked and very saddened to hear of Palmer’s passing. He was a wonderful and passionate man who loved his family, friends and profession. I hadn’t seen Palmer in many years but he is someone that you will never forget. I was going to be in Memphis and I was excited about the thought of reconnecting with him and when I reached out to a former colleague and was informed of Palmers passing, I was deeply hurt and to see his picture on his obituary brought back so many great memories that I got emotional. I wanted to thank Palmer for his support, for his guidance and dare I say friendship. I will never forget Palmer and I am so sorry that I never had the opportunity to say “Thanks”! God Bless the Smith Family! David Waddell

I am so sorry to see the passing of Palmer. He and I were grammar school sweethearts first through third grade at Glendale Elementary School in Nashville. We both lived on Outer Drive during this time. I still tell the story that he had a birthday party in third grade and we played spin the bottle and he was the first boy I ever kissed. I have such fond memories of him. He was such a sweet and cute boy and by his picture he has not changed a bit. We kept in touch until the late 70’s. So sorry for your loss and I know that he will be in your hearts forever as in mine.Sincerely,Penny Kesterson McCullough

Palmer was my classmate. He played his heart out on the football field. He was driven and a tough competitor. Even after all these years he still recognized me and always tried to keep smiling. He was a good fellow and I am glad that I knew him.
