Eric McCutcheon Palmer, 33, passed away Sunday, May 12, 2013. Eric was born in June of 1979 in Santa Barbara, California to Greg and Ginny Palmer. He spent many happy days in Santa Barbara, Aspen, Colorado and here on the Central Coast. He loved nature, animals, a good party, and most of all his dear friends and family whom he treasured and respected so much. His Bernese Mountain Dog, Basel, was the love of his life and gave him so much joy.
Eric was a handsome, smart, creative, irreverently funny, and most of all the kindest, most loving young man you could hope to meet. Eric leaves behind his adoring family, including his parents, brother Nathaniel (Heather), nephew Nathaniel and niece Amelia, many beloved cousins, aunts and uncles and very special grandmother Virginia, who always stood by him unconditionally.
