Nancy & Children I was filled with sorry when cousin Lyrice notified of Cousin Delmar's death. I owe everthing of my being, to Uncle Melvin because it was because of his transfer to Florence, S.C. to open a Sing Oil service station that my father (Euitt
Palmer) met my mother Elsie Wright Palmer My father passed away in 1975 but mother is still alive and in a Nursing Home at the age of 94. May
God bless and keep you close to his side.

Del Palmer's voice and presence are deeply inscribed in my memory. Both and he and Nancy were wonderful mentors to me during my years on the Hill (73-77). I loved coming up that staircase in the old Memorial Hall and the glad smile he would send from his office. I remember him teaching the Classical poets: "there are tears in the nature of things, and all things doomed to die touch the heart." Then as now, Delmar, then as now. Take care Nancy--I truly remember both of you with great thanks!

Dear Nancy, Allison, Nancy Beth, and all the family,
When I heard of Del's passing I could not keep the tears back. Del and you all were such rocks for me back in the early 70's, and you truly were life savers. I will never forget Del's story about the molasses and the feather that kept him occupied for hours as a child. I send my love, and Randy's love, to you all with the hope that somehow you will see this message and perhaps can get in touch. Love in great measure to you all. Judy and Randy Krum

My heart is so heavy and the loss so great. To me Del was the epitome of a DEAN and SCHOLAR who had the liberal arts in his heart and always sought to revere it. His support was always forthcoming and his warmth pervasive. I will miss having him in this world. He truly is one of my favorite people from all my years at WMC, now McDaniel College. My love and condolences to his lovely family. Nancy, I am here for you in anyway at anytime. With deep respect and affection, Christianna

Del was a talented, caring educator and he had a profound influence on my life. Without Del Palmer, I would not be a writer and a bookstore owner. But more importantly, Deb Hosey and I may have never met and married.
Del cast many pebbles into the water and he continues to have a far-reaching impact.

Dr. Palmer was a wonderful teacher and one of the kindest and gentlest human beings I have ever met. The world is a better place because he was in it.
