Bob was a fellow orthodontist and close friend for over thirty years. We belonged to several serious and fun groups related to dentistry during those times.
My wife Carley and children enjoyed many wonderful times together with the Baker family. Bob's humor and pleasant personality were a great inspiration to us all.
Carley and I extend our sincerest sympathies to Natalie, Susan, Bobby, Nancy and the entire Baker family.

My sympathy to all the Bakers. Your father took great care of me and several of my brothers and sisters. I heard from my parents tonight of his passing away and I am sad to hear this. He made dental appointment less scary, and always had a funny joke to tell me. He was especially proud of Susan for her work at Cornell and the University of Houston. I wish I was in Ithaca to attend his service. May you all find comfort in knowing that he gave so many of us great care and he was one in a million!!!
