It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Jeffery “Jeff” Alan Palmer a beautiful soul who touched the hearts of all who knew him. Jeff left us far too soon, but his kindness and love for life will live on in the memories of his family and friends. Known for his infectious smile and warm spirit, Jeff had a remarkable gift for making everyone feel special. Whether it was through his weekly lunches with friends which were moments he cherished deeply or the joy he found in country music concerts, Jeff always made time for the people and things he loved most. His life was one filled with laughter, friendship, and a love for all those around him.
Jeff was proud of his past work as a receptionist at Prepare Challenge and Create, where his gentle nature made him a beloved part of the organization. He also had fond memories of his time working at Zellers, where he formed lasting connections with coworkers and customers.
