Anita Scott Palmer Obituary

Lancaster Anita Scott Palmer passed away on May 14, 2020. Born March 1, 1940 in Buffalo Kentucky, she was the daughter of Earl and Maedelle Scott. She is survived by her sister Mary Ann Hedges of Shelbyville KY; two sons, Scott Palmer of Lancaster and Nathan Palmer of Charlotte; three grandchildren, Ryan, Nicholas and Megan; one great grandchild, Holden. Anita graduated from Hodgenville High School, Hodgenville KY in 1957 and attended Transylvania College in Lexington KY. While working in the family drug store and soda shop, Anita met her husband Al Palmer, who happened to be traveling through town while stationed at Fort Knox KY. They married four months later and were married for 59 years until his passing in October of 2018. Anita loved baking and her cornbread and desserts were second to none. She also enjoyed reading, averaging a book a week and working the daily crossword puzzle with only a pen. She loved traveling to the mountains and beaches, as well as playing cards and games with friends and family. Her church community was equally important and she asked that any remembrances or donations made in her name be given to the United Methodist Church, 200 W. Gay Street, Lancaster SC. There will be a gathering of friends and family at the United Methodist Church this Sunday May, 24 at 3pm. The family asks that everyone please observe social distancing before and after the ceremony. A Simple Service Burial and Cremation is serving the Palmer family.
