My heart Is broken with this news. My condolences to all her children that she so immensely loved. Mrs. Palmer was my "mom" in Columbus after my mom passed away and her own children's lives lead them to other parts of the U.S. We shared a special bond as she was such a special spirit. I will forever cherish our special friendship.
