Palmerdon Palmer Obituary

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I can't believe it! I awoke this morning with Rev. Palmer on my mind. Upon opening my E-Mail, there was a notice of an entry in the Guest Book. I still have fond memories of the man that wanted to be a lawyer, like Perry Mason, but became a man of God, instead.

My how the years just roll by, it has been nine years since you left on your heavenly journey. So much has happened over the years, some good andd some not so good,but our Master is stilll Blessing the family. You absence is hard for us. Your Little Great Niece is now the Blessor of our family meals at Thanksgiving and Christmas, you would Love her loving Attitude and the Spirit of caring for Nana(me). She is 4 now but she knows who you are, I keep that memory instilled in her mind, she did not meet you on earth but she was that sweet little angel you met in heaven, she has such a Love for "Jesus's House"(church) she loves going to his house Oh she is such a Blessing,her name is Akirah and she can spell it, she is so intelligent. and she takes good care of me. The family gatherings are not the same without you, I Thank God for the years he allowed you to spend with us as a wonderful son, brother, uncle, best friend, and minister. Terry has your Bible he has changed so much , he studies the Word constantly and even goes to church with us. One day I believe he will follow in your footsteps,with God and your help, I know he will one day be our next pastor.
Well Son I had to talk to you I feel much better now.
I will always Love you, and I will never forget you.
Your MoM!!!

Dear God My Request:
If roses grow in Heaven, Please pick a bunch for me and place them in Don's arms and tell them they are from me. Please place a kiss upon his cheek and hold it a little while, Tell him I Love and Miss him, Please God control this ache in my Heart that just will not go away.

"Dear Son"
It has been eigth years since you slipped away on Sunday Morning July 17, 2005. Oh how I miss you. Every Sunday I look and listen for your phone call as you always called after your day ended at church, and we discussed our Blessed Day. I know you are looking over our family, they need your spiritual guidance. God is good and I know he will lead them in the right direction, There is not a day that I do not think of you, I have accepted God's Will because God only lent you to me for a little while,I knew you were his Child I also was aware that one day he would come back for his child. I know all of us will be called to leave this earthy body and be united with him. It is so hard to give you up and accept God's will but we have to believe one day you and he will welcome us with open arms.

I Love you Son.
Thank You Lord for allowing me the priviledge to enjoy th Life of my and your son the Rev.Palmerdon Palmer, Jr.

We still have fond memories of you. I remember your warm sense of humor, and I know why you were sent to us by our Lord and Saviour. Because of you, our congregation is progressing peacefully. Thank you and thank the Lord.

My Son
The years has gone by so quickly, I cannot believe you have been gone for six years. I know you are watching over us, I look and your picture everyday and I miss the talks we shared about family, friends and concerns. I miss the yearly visits and holiday visits. Nothing has been the same since you left. I am still having problems accepting your death but GOD is in control and only he knows why you had to go at such a young age, as you often told me" when you/we had comleted the work/job that God had set forth for you/us to do on earth it would be time for you/us go." You truly believed that statement so I am accepting that as a fact. You were a great Son, Brother, Uncle, Advisor, Friend and Pastor. You will never be forgotten. Mother Dixon will always love and cherish your memories. All six of Mr. Joe and Lorraine's children are with you now keep a watch over them along with your all your family members. God is good all the time, and All the time he is Good. My heart still aches for you. I Love you.
Mom

My Dear Son Oh how the years have passed I miss you more and more ceach day. I have prayed for God to give me the contentment I need to accept your leavingI struggle every day trying to find peace it has been five years and the tears flow as if it was today. Your Aunt Willa Mae is with you now she suffered so much pain before God took her home unlike you he spared you any pain or grief, God needed you so he called you on the spot. I know you was ready because he had molded you into a great pastor at your young age. He called you answered with a smile. I know you are happy in God's presence. I am being selfish because I wanted to keep you. You are so missed by the family and you have another beautiful niece her name is A'Kirah. God took you but he give me this baby. Mother Dixon is also still missing you, We pray for each other. I know in time God will heal both our hearts. W think of you everyday and night. I pray but I know it is for me because I know you are in God's Glory and donot need my earthy prays. Keep watch over us and some way some how help the family to adjust to God's will. Thanks for being my son, my confidant and my friend.

Love Mom

wow, Uncle Junior, it's been so long since you've passed away and our family is still trying to deal with and accept your passing. we really miss you and I know i still think about you everyday. You were the glue that kept our family together, and I know you are not happy with the way in which we are dealing with your death, but because you were the spiritual one, we all feel so lost without your guidance. You were my favorite Uncle, my motivator, and my counselor. I will always remember the advice you have given me in regards to my education, my marriage, and my children. I really miss you and i love you. Rest in peace.

To My Son on This Second Christmas Anniversary, and the NEW YEAR 2008.

Christmas and this NEW YEAR is not the same without you. I know you are with me at all times as I can feel your Spirit.

Son, I am really trying to accept your loss but it is so hard, I cannot get over the fact that I did not have a chance to be with you in your last hour but, I can hold onto the memory of our last visit just three week before you went on your heavenly journey.

I will cherish your last word to me. " Mom take care of Yourself and remember I will always Love You."

I remember the Big Bear Hug and your smile as you drove away.

I Loved you but God loved you more and he needed you in his vineyard.

I Pray he will ease this pain in my heart and give me Peace of mind.

Good Bye MY Son.

I Will Always Love You Too.

MOM

This is Alma Steele of Los Angeles. I have a new E-Mail address.

I am Alma Steele. I made the last entry for Rev. Palmer in the Guest Book. I have a new E-Mail address. We still miss Rev. Palmer at United Christian Church in Los Angeles.

I had a dream Thanksgiving night. I saw Rev. Palmer dressed in a military uniform with battle metals all over his jacket, wearing a cap just like General MacArthur. He was driving a long silver convertible,heleaned back in the corner of the seat, had a BIG smile on his face while he drove with one hand on the steering wheel. There was lots of whooping and hollering and shouts of "He's back! He's back! I can't forget that dream. There must be a message there. So, I think he wants all of us to know that he fought the fight amd won the battles. It lets us know that he's all rigjt.

In Memory of Rev. Palmerdon Palmer Jr. July 17, 2006



One year ago today, you quietly passed away. Sleep on Pastor Palmer and rest in peace.



You have fought the good fight, you have finished the course. When Jesus returns, the dead in Christ will rise up to meet Him first. What a day of rejoicing that will be? When we all see Jesus, we will sing and shout the victory.

I will never forgot all of our conversations, laughs and prayers together.

The Science FAIR at Optimal Christian Academy for gardes 6-8 was held on March 2, 2006. We didn't have ample judges to evaluate the Middle-School partticipants. Joseph W. Reed placed first in the school, and Joshua D. Reed places 2nd in the 6th grade. We all missed you.



We attended the ACSI Science Fair at Biola University on April 7th, 2006. Our team consisted ox six students. Every member of the team placed in the Excellent category. I was very proud of the entire team. (ACSI) Association os Christian Schools International.



Your encouragement and support for the students and our grandsons will never be forgotten.



The "Signs Language Praise Team" continued to meet on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays. (11Am-1Pm.) When I am Asked about the sounds coming from the roof, I could easily say. "It's the wind or birds." But, on a couple of occasions, I said it might be you-letting me know you are there with us, in tbhe Spirit.



Rest in peace. In Christian Love, Mother Dixon of Compton

I am very sorry for your loss. My sister, Ophelia Dixon is a member of the congregation lead by Pastor Palmer. She always speak most highly of him.

"Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in Thy sight." Everytime I hear this invitation to prayer, I hear the mellow high tone of Pastor Palmer and somehow feel that he is still watching over us. I remember, fondly and reverently, each Sunday morning, he and I were the first to arrive at the church for Sunday School. We also shared our vision for the church as we waited for others to gather. The first Sunday he missed was the day he went home to be with the Lord. Blessed be the namd os the Lord. Oh, how we miss him!

We suffered a great loss when suddenly our Lord and Saviour called you home. Only God knows why. I like to think he needed you in heaven. Rest in Peace

It was a short time, but an everlasting relationship. Every Sunday morning worship is filled with memories of your sermons. You will always be in our hearts and I thank God that I knew you.

At United Christian Church we were devestated at your sudden departure. We were at a loss not knowing what to do without you. Looking back, we can see that you laid out the plan for us; you chose our next pastor to replace you. We really know that you were a man of God, following His direction in your life. Oh how it is so good to know you. Your job was well done in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour.

May you rest in peace.

I would like to take a minute to thank Rev. Palmer for his support at my school's annual Science Fair. The Lord will send you a helper in your time of need and Rev Palmer was just that for me. He will truely be missed at this years Science Fair

Four months ago you passed away, and you are truley missed, but your warmth,your kindness and you gentle spirit i'll always keep in my heart.



As this holiday season approaches, the first without your physical presence, we know you are with us in spirit.



To you my baby brother, I say rest in peace until we meet again.

Four months ago you passed away,God loved you so, He wouldn't

let you stay. God knew that the pain would cut deep in our hearts, so, He assigned Dr. Butler to help fill the void. By: Mother Dixon

Rev. Palmer is truly a man of God. We, at United Christian Church, Los Angeles, are still in deep sadness at his sudden departure. We are able to continue through the strength and guidance he instilled in us. God loves you and so do I. Rest in peace.

I met Don as his officiated @ his Uncle Robert Lee's funeral services. He was so much like Christ that God had to bring Him all the way up. His Uncle Jr was my brother-in-law. I know they are happy around God's throne. Mother of Don and siblings I will continue to life you up in prayer.

Love, vge

I went to school with Don from Pike on through Coronado. He was one of the nicest people I knew. I remember his mom working in the school office, such a great lady.
