Steve Palermo Faced Every Obstacle With Integrity
Posted Jul 2, 2017
Former big league umpire Steve Palermo loved life, even in his final days, even when he was clinging to each remaining breath in his battle with the cancer that finally won the battle on May 14. Palermo’s struggle was apparent. He didn’t make it to spring training this year, but it wasn’t his choice. The doctors had him on hold because of his health. Palermo never made it to Arizona.
