Mr. William “Bill” Merle Palmer of Lethbridge, passed away peacefully at Chinook Regional Hospital, on Thursday August 1, 2024, at the age of 75 years.

Bill spent his entire life in Southern Alberta. He was an autobody mechanic by trade and he enjoyed the lifestyle. Bill loved painting and to work on vehicles and invested his time and energy in collecting various “collectors’ cars”. He enjoyed cruising around in his cars and chatting with anyone about the “good old days”. Bill liked hunting and was an avid gun collector. In recent years his health prevented him from hunting, however he kept up on all the latest news and gadgets through his numerous magazine subscriptions. Bill’s knowledge of everything outdoors and auto related will live on in his children’s minds. He will be dearly missed by his family and friends.

William is survived by his daughter Kayla Palmer; son William Palmer; grandchildren Cadence Quartland Palmer, and sister Lee.

Bill will be privately remembered by his family.

Cremation entrusted to Martin Brothers Funeral Chapels.
