Birth date: Aug 30, 1924 Death date: May 17, 2022
M.I. voluntarily joined the navy the day after Pearl Harbor and was the youngest ever first class tech specialist while stationed in Hawaii. In 1944, stationed in Oakland, California, he married his high school sweetheart, Kathryn Read Obituary
I will never forgot how kind M.I. treated me. I’m glad that I was able to call him my step grandpa.
I have so many memories of Minter, both at church and in our home. What a sweet man. He and Kathryn and then GayNell were good friends and visited my Mom & Dad whenever possible. Minert was one of the few people who regularly checked on my Mother as she grew older and after Dad passed away. He regularly told me how he loved my Mom as a friend and was generally concerned for her. What I know for sure is that they are both rejoicing in the presence of the Lord today and forever. My prayers are offered to the family and to all his friends for comfort and peace in this sad time of loss.
Our Deepest Sympathies go out to the Palmer family. We have so many memories through out the years. We will miss him and his e-mails and stories of which there were so many. I keep wanting to put his e-mail address in a message when I send something out. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Jon and Laroyce Coy
