Mayor John Jenkins joined those honoring Palman, saying, "Your outstanding and unwavering service allows us to see our community with clear vision."
"Do you take apprentices?" added the mayor. "I'm looking for a new job."
One of Palman's admirers read a poem honoring him. It said in part, "he inspires us all to do our jobs for as long and as well as we can."
"I just hope this is me you're talking about," joked Palman. "I'm kind of overwhelmed."
Palman, who now limits his washing to first-floor windows, said he has no intention to retire.
"I've had a lot of fun over the years," he said. "You meet the nicest people."
