To The Family of Chris Palmer, May God give you strength and peace during this difficult time of loss. Chris and I met 18 years ago and have remained good friends every since. He would often inbox me for prayer or just to say hello and see how I was doing! I will truly miss my brother, my forever friend! I truly was as he would say: His "Sista"! Love you Palmer... Until we meet again!
