Robert was born on April 27, 1977 in Davenport, Iowa, a son of Joe and Helen Cathy (Reynders) Palmer. 

Robert enjoyed working with his hands, especially his woodworking, and was an avid video gamer.  He loved his animals and was loyal to those he loved.  He was able to make friends anywhere he went.  He was very stubborn but most of all he was a fighter.  He fought hard until the end with a smile on his face.  He will be greatly missed.  

Those left to honor his memory include his son, Dylan Jacobsen; father Joe (Lynn) Palmer; brothers Joe Palmer, III and Richard Palmer; nephews, Andrew, Noah, Erik, and Remi; Aunt and Uncles Sandy (Lee) Terry, Martha (Bob) Eberhart and Richard (Cindy) Reynders; and special friends Chris (Martin) Lopez.

He was preceded in death by his mother.

The family would like to thank the staff at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago, Davenport E.M.S, Genesis ER Medical Staff, and Rock Valley Physical Therapy for their love and support.
