Daniel was born on January 9, 1978, in Grand Island, Nebraska, to the late Ricky Palmer and Vickie Palmer. He was a devoted husband, father, brother, and uncle.

Daniel was an avid "Dallas Cowboy" fan known widely for his love of them. Daniel had a heart of gold, and he loved everyone with all he had.
Daniel leaves behind to cherish his memory his wife: Carolyn Palmer; faithful dog: Sasha Jax; four stepchildren whom he loved as his own: Hayden, Destiny, Serenity, and Joey; brother: Brad Palmer (Dixie Wooley); nieces and nephews: Skylar Palmer, Lil EJ Palmer (Camden Towe), Baily (Ray Carter), Courtney Palmer, Colesleigh Palmer, Zoiee Lear, Freya Towe, and Elizabeth Lear; great-nieces: Lily and Maddie Carter; sisters in law: Tina Calvin, Robyn Hancock, Andrea Lear, and Brittany Lear; in-laws: Andy (Carol) Lear; and a host of aunts, cousins and many friends whom he considered to be family.
