(SAN DIEGO, CA) – On behalf of Lamkin Corporation – President and CEO, Bob Lamkin has released a statement on the passing of legendary golfer, Arnold Palmer.
“Words are an insufficient tool to fully convey the profound sense of loss and sorrow related to the passing of Mr. Palmer. Over the last 20 years, during a chance meeting, Mr. Palmer took me under his wing and shaped both my business and personal life in a very profound way. Mr. Palmer’s impact on the game of golf will be his lasting legacy, as his friendship and charisma will live on forever in the hearts of golfers and fans of the game everywhere.
In the coming days you will read and hear many positive things of Mr. Palmer’s extraordinary contributions both on and off the course. I can confirm that all are true as I have been lucky enough to witness them firsthand. While we grieve his loss, we will also celebrate his memory. His smile made us smile. His laugh made us laugh. And his strength of character and endless generosity made us aspire to be better human beings. I can’t imagine a more esteemed or important legacy. You will be so deeply missed, my dear friend and most beloved mentor.”
