Mr. Palmer was born in New London, CT.  He served four years with the United States Navy during the sixties and taught middle school math for 20 years in Guilford, CT.  While teaching, he also worked 20 years part time managing a local nursery.  He moved to Palm Coast in 1989 and worked 16 years for Flagler County School District as Parent Specialist/Coordinator for the Title I Program.  Mr. Palmer retired in 2005 after 36 years of working at various job levels in public education.
