Tom Palmer

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of our loved one, “TP”, Thomas Joseph Palmer, Husband, Stepfather, treasured grandfather by love, son, brother and friend, who left us peacefully on May 15, 2026, surrounded by his loving family.

Born on August 4, 1964 in Virgina, Tom was the seventh of eight children and lovingly nicknamed “smiley” for his warm spirit and easy smile. Tom earned degrees from Rollins College and Florida Southern University before building a successful career as a CPA and auditor. He loved car racing, snow skiing, and above all, his family. Tom was always there to support and care for those he loved.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Eileen Palmer, and his brother, Robert Palmer. Tom will be remembered for his kindness, quiet strength, and the steady presence he brought to the lives of so many. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always.

In loving memory of Tom, those who wish can direct contributions to the Center for Liver Disease & Transplantation at Houston Methodist Hospital (https://www.houstonmethodist.org/transplant/liver-center/) or the Alzheimer's Association.
