Passed away peacefully in his sleep at Sara Vista Nursing Home in Elmvale on Thursday August 15/19 in his 87th year. Beloved husband of the late Sheryn Bowman. He is the last to pass away of 10 siblings - five sisters (Marge, Audrey, Bet, Francis and Sally) and four brothers (Joe, Sheldon, John and Austin). Palmer had a professional career in Midget Wrestling (Pee Wee Rogers) in his twenties and traveled all over North America from event to event. Eventually Palmer made his way back to Barrie and began a career at Cooper Tool where he retired. Collecting and selling Antiques was the hobby that Palmer could not get enough of. He loved going to Antique auctions in the 70’s, 80s and 90’s. Special thank you to Sara Vista Nursing Home and all caregivers at the home for taking care of Palmer over the years and especially in his last hours. Private Family celebration and interment will take place as per Palmer's wishes.
