After a long illness we know she is having a heavenly reunion with her husband of 54 years, Glovern Palmer; parents, Walter and Grace Francisco; brothers, Walter and Frank Francisco; sisters, Juanita Rowe and Virginia Ruth Goad; grandchildren; greatgrandchildren; and her beloved pet, Missy. She is survived by her brother and sister-in-law, Eugene and Florence Francisco, of New Castle; sons, Lonnie and Sarah Palmer, Rellis and Drema Palmer, Woodrow and Debra Palmer, Shannon and Brenda Palmer, and Wyatt and Wendy Palmer; daughters, Jeanette and Gene Niday, Jeanine and Ronald Horne, Chekita Young and Dwight; and numerous grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. Elsie retired from Maid Bess with 30 years of service. She considered her co-workers as extended family especially Wanda and Larry. She loved her family and friends and although her health kept her from driving she looked forward to their visits and staying at their homes. She couldn't pass a Goodwill without stopping and mention going to Tennessee and she would beat you to the car. She loved when Christopher came to see his "Nana on the hill" and had her come stay with him so she could go to his ball games and other functions. Konnor brought a twinkle to her eyes when he sat and read to her, made sure her socks and shoes were on and then say "ok great grandma." We would like to thank all Elsie's physicians and staff. A big thank you to the Adult Care Center of Roanoke Valley for their loving care this past year. She looked forward to going each work day enjoying the activities, crafts, outings and new friends. Memorial services will be held 11 a.m. on Saturday, August 30, 2008, at Mountain Pass Baptist Church on Route 311 with the Reverend Newcomb officiating.
