Obituary for Robert Gray "Bob" Palmer

Robert Gray "Bob"  Palmer
Palmer, Robert G. 'Bob'
"We have lost our rock and the love of our lives". Robert Gray Palmer passed away suddenly on Wednesday, April 18th, 2018. Cherished husband for 45 years to Dawn Elizabeth Palmer (Oakes). Worshiped and cherished father of Shaun (Christine), Cory (Nicole) and Derek (Laura). Dear son of John Gray and the late Irene Frances (Poole) Palmer and brother to Doug (Judy) Palmer. Proud grandfather of Amelia, Olivia and Ellie. Bob will be sadly missed by his father-in-law Donald Oakes (the late Betty Oakes), sisters-in-law Vicky Findlay (Brian) (late Gerry) Findlay, Janie Kerr (Earl), and brother-in-Law Ricky Oakes (Dorothy). Bob's favorite passions were his family, his Mini and helping others. He will be dearly missed by all of his family, cousins, neighbours and his many long time friends. Family and friends may pay their respects at the Blair & Son Funeral Home, 15 Gore St. W. Perth on Sunday, April 22nd, 2018 between 1:00 and 5:00 P.M. Bob's Celebration of Life will be held in the Chapel on Monday at 10:30 A.M. "To know him was a privilege, to love him was a gift and to be loved by Bob was a treasure." In remembrance, contributions to the Christie Lake Kids Camp or Lanark Animal Welfare Society (L.A.W.S.) would be appreciated. Bob's family and friends will gather for an outdoor Celebration of his Life to be held this summer (date to be announced) at his beloved Christie Lake.
