Palmer loved being with his brothers and their friends, mocha frappes and Klondike bars, running cross country, playing video games, everything Care Center, movies, scalloping with his dad, and his two cats. Palmer especially loved helping people whenever he saw a need, but his absolute favorite way was through Care Center Stay-at-Home Work Camps.
