Dear Palmer Family,
While I am sadden by her death, I know Kathy lives in us through her love, generosity, and compassion. I have so many memories of her from when I was a boy (living in State College) and teenager (on many visits). She introduced me to the Franciscan's. Once I visited with a French exchange student and she took us to a Bastille Day celebration so he could be with other French people. I remember her hosting David's 10th(?)birthday party.

Dear Howard and family,
Nancy and I send our deepest sympathies to you on Kathy's death. She was a wonderful, sweet woman, and will be missed.

I cannot imagine how many Christian organizations are poorer for the loss of Kathy Palmer. I worked with her at St. Andrew's many years ago and she was the very definition of a Christian. I also remember her many kindnesses to me personally. My sincerest condolences to all the members of her wonderful family.

Dear Dr. Palmer:
Our most profoundly felt condolences... We shall always remember Mrs. Palmer for her kindness and most authentic humanity ever since she and you opened your home for us when I was a graduate student.

Dear Howard and family,
Kathy's life was a model for us all. She represented the best a person can be in this life and it was a privilege to have known her when our family lived in State College 40 years ago. I am very sorry for your loss and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Howard and Family,
I will never forget Kathy. She has always been for me just what a Christian should be. She was a blessing to all who knew her personally and to those who did know her because she did so much for so many. She lived her faith and I am so very thankful to have known her. We miss her and her loving wisdom. I am so sorry for your loss.
