PALMER, Ronald Albert (Mike) 1921 - 2008
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing, with family by his side, Mike Palmer, age eighty-seven, at the Grace Christian Home on October 31, 2008. Born and raised in Farnham, QC, pre-deceased by parents David and Alice, brothers David, Harry and Gerry Palmer. Most beloved husband of the late Alice Banks, much loved Dad to daughters Judy Nicoll and Betty Coles. Cherished Pappy to grand-daughters Samantha Coles, Kristina Nicoll and the late Jamie Coles. Lovingly remembered by sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces and family friends. Mike was a veteran of WWII, an avid sportsman who played many sports locally and provincially, and was a passionate fan of the Montreal Canadians and Expos, but first and foremost, of the LA Dodgers. Mike had a caring and loving way with animals, especially with all his puppies and ducks. Most importantly was his love and devotion to his family. To Peggy Grapes, who has been by our side all these years, loving and caring for our Mom and Dad, no words can express how we feel, you will always be part of our family. Sincere thanks to the staff of the Grace Christian Home, for their care and compassion.
