Very sad,

These two are back together.

A great man! I remember sitting on a bench by the 1st tee at The Chaudierre GC as a 4 year old in 1959 and my Dad brought me a small bottle of Coke and pointed to the first tee and asked me, "Do you know who that is?".... and obviously I didn't. He said, "That is Arnold Palmer!" But my father said it as though he was a very important man, like the Prime Minister or someone of that level. It was an elevated tee with flowers around it and a path with stoned steps to get you up to that level, so being the innocent little kid that I was, I walked through the spectators and up to the tee and introduced myself and he shook my hand and said something like, "What a little gentleman" after I offered him my Coke with a straw in it and everyone started to laugh. I remember him shaking my hand to this day and how rough it felt at the time. RIP Arnold, you are loved.

Truly a sad time. Rest in Peace Mr. Palmer. You are missed.

I came across this little gem last night. Trevino on Palmer, enjoy. www.youtube.com/watch

Very sad time. The King will be missed. Rest in Peace Mr. Palmer

Yes very sad, but being 87 and still loving the game at all levels is awesome. I saw a letter posted by MacKenzie Hughes dated August 15 congratulating him on his close Web.com win, what a true patriarch / fan of the game.

I have never met Mr. Palmer, but feel like I really knew him.... Sunday was a very sad day, as there will never be another person like him.
RIP

Very sad day. RIP
