Jeremy LeTylen Palmer

Jeremy LeTylen Palmer was born October 13, 1978, in Columbia, Missouri, and passed from this life on September 28, 2023, in Topeka, Kansas. Jeremy was a steady, hardworking presence in the lives of those who knew him, remembered most for his devotion to family, his easy friendship, and the quiet ways he brought people together.

For more than a decade Jeremy worked at Home Depot as a forklift driver, where coworkers relied on his consistency and good humor. Away from work he loved simple pleasures: watching and debating Kansas City Chiefs football with friends, playing poker and chess, and taking trips to Las Vegas that became occasions for laughter and camaraderie. He enjoyed movies and the company of close friends, who recall his competitive spirit and warm loyalty.

Jeremy treasured his role as a father. He is survived by his son Jaylen Palmer of Topeka and his daughter Jasmine Palmer of Jefferson City, Missouri. He was also loved by his parents, Eugene Harbert and Kathryn L. (Palmer) Sharpe, along with siblings, extended family members, and many friends who will carry his memory forward. Those who gathered around him remember shared meals, playful debates over football, and a presence that made ordinary days a little brighter.

Though words cannot fill the space left by his passing, those who loved Jeremy honor the life he lived — a life of steady work, friendship, and family ties. May his memory be a comfort to his children, his parents, and all who knew him.
