Wanda Rae West Palmer

I'm sorry for your lose your family is in my thoughts and prayers

I had the privilege of meeting this great sister at our Stake Conference in Payson. The choir sang "Oh, That I Was An Angel"

I cherish the blessings of having Wanda and her music in my life. As a missionary serving in the Arizona Tempe Mission I had the opportunity to stand behind Sister Palmer as she played her piano and witness on several occasions the direction she received from up above as she placed her hands on the keys. I will never forget the feeling I felt knowing that the Spirit truly had a special place in her life. I am thankful for the experiences I have had on several occasions to sing her music and...

I will always remember her for "Oh That I Were an Angel". It was sung by a trio of my girl friends at my mission farewell in June 1963. It was one of the first times it was performed.

I am so sorry for the loss of your loved one. Please find peace and comfort in Psalms 119:76.

The music she brought into the world made the world a better place. "Mary's Lullaby" is one my mother, five sisters and I sing every year and love the spirit it adds to such a special time we share together. I'm grateful she wasn't afraid to share her talents and while I never met her in person, I feel a loss at her passing. Sending prayers of comfort and peace to the family, but also prayers of gratitude for a woman able to put such beautiful music together.

We have lost one of the most talented women whose music brought such joy to so many.
Wanda and I were friends in elementry school in Show Low. Her family was outstanding. We later became friends again in Mesa. I have a daughter that I thought was talented so I took her to Wanda and ask her to listen to her and tell me if she thought she was good enough to pursue her music. She said she isn't good ~ she is outstanding!
I have the sheet music to one of her songs she wrote that she...

Wanda will be missed. We in the West family loved her. she was always kind, friendly and gracious to those around her. Uncle Karl and Aunt Erma West have a complete family in the spirit world now--an accomplished family they can be proud of.

She wrote the music of heaven. One of my favorites is, "Oh, That I Were An Angel." She was truly inspired. May the Lord's Choicest Blessings be with her family at this time of mourning.
