Glenn Charles Palmer Sr., 59, of Burlington, TX, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, September 6, 2019 at his home. He was the husband of Antonina (Fears-Dull) Palmer, to whom he was married on May 25, 2019.
Born on August 28, 1960 in Attleboro, MA, he was the son of Eileen E. (Yarboro) Palmer-Curran of Attleboro and the late Robert Raymond Palmer.
Raised and educated in Attleboro, Glenn worked for many years as a truck driver and previously was employed for NY Systems in the Olneyville section of Providence, RI. A resident of Texas for the past twelve years, he previously lived in Providence.
A warm and outgoing man, he enjoyed playing the guitar, especially classic rock and rock; riding his Harley-Davidson motorcycle; and, in his younger years, playing baseball in little league. More than anything, he loved being with his family, especially his cherished grandchildren.
In addition to his wife and mother, Glenn, he leaves his stepfather, Robert L. Curran, of Attleboro, and his loving children: Trena M. Palmer of Sterling, MA; Glenn C. Palmer Jr., of Attleboro, MA; Tracy L. Palmer of North Attleboro, MA; and Kyle L. Palmer of Burlington, TX. He was the proud grandfather of five grandchildren and the dear brother of Robert R. Palmer Jr. of Attleboro, MA. Glenn leaves several nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.
