A musician in his own right, Gary is known for heading up rock band Gary Lewis & The Playboys.

He explained that Palmer "was never sick and would be humming all the time at the nursing home."

"She lived 99 years and had a full life and is now in heaven singing with the angels," he concluded, noting that she received aid from a memory care unit in a Las Vegas nursing home until her passing.
