Sandra “Sandy” Sue Palmer, 82, passed away peacefully on January 17, 2026. Born in Delavan, Wisconsin, Sandy made her home in Jacksonville, Florida, where she built a life filled with love, laughter, and deep faith.
Sandy was the kind of person who made every room brighter. She loved her family fiercely, cherished her friends, and was always ready for fun. Grounded in her faith in Jesus, she lived with a joyful spirit and a generous heart. She embraced many roles throughout her life—devoted wife, loving mother, proud grandmother and great‑grandmother, caring aunt, and loyal friend.
She found happiness in simple pleasures: playing games, creating arts and crafts, and spending time with the people she loved most. She carried a quiet strength, always devoted to those she loved. Her decisiveness and spirited nature guided her through life with grace.
Sandy is survived by her son, Gregory Palmer; her daughter and son‑in‑law, Christy and Kevin Chung; her grandchildren, Ashley Jewels (Chad), Katelyn MacKoul, Palmer and Carson Chung; and her great‑grandchildren, Riley and Jack Jewels. Her legacy lives on in each of them.
A celebration of Sandy’s life will be held on Saturday, February 7 at 4:00 p.m. at Windsor Pointe Independent Living, 4060 San Pablo Parkway, Jacksonville, FL 32224. Family and friends are invited to gather, remember, and honor a life well lived.

Sandy was one of the most genuine people I’ve ever known. She overflowed with love and kindness and possessed a gentle and loving demeanor. It’s been my honor to be able to call her my friend for these last 11 years. Calm and caring, but with that twinkle of mischief in her eyes, Sandy will truly be missed💔

Sandy, you’re so missed. From the very first time I met Sandy I knew she was a special person with the love she had for her family and the love they had for her.. I will always remember her great smile and big hugs. She always made me feel special. Wishing all of the family and friends, comfort and peace while you grieve. I know we weren’t ready to let her go, but God had other plans for her. Rest in peace.
