Arnold Palmer’s memorial service

By

Today, five days after his family said goodbye in a private ceremony, friends, associates and the public that adored him will remember and celebrate the life of Arnold Palmer at 11 a.m. at a memorial service at the basilica on the Saint Vincent College campus. Even though he was Presbyterian, Palmer would occasionally attend Sunday Mass at the basilica because of his long friendship with Archabbot Douglas Nowicki.
