To the Baker Family,
What an honor it was to know Bake. He was a high energy, positive, spunky individual who liked to tackle his customers. I have so many wonderful memories of working with him at Snowman's and Gallo's. He taught me that it was ok to have fun at work, actually with him it was a requirement. He was and still is the only person I know that would charge through the door to work at 5 a.m. in the morning singing and dancing ready to tackle the day. He loved his family and was proud to be able to provide for his children, grandchildren and especially his wife, whom he adored and would do anything in the world for. I thank him for all the wonderful values that he instilled in me and for teaching me to take pride in all that I do. I thank him for showing me how to have fun and to be a good person. It was an honor to know and work for him. I know he will be greatly missed.

Amy, Don, Terri, Paul, Mary,and family,
I first met Mr. Baker when he brought ice cream to my second grade class when Mary was my student teacher. I will never forget how nice he was and his positive energy. Mr. Baker was my first boss and he made work so much fun. There was never a dull moment when he was around. Always remember the great memories. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Amy and family,
I'm so sorry to hear about Don's passing. He was truly a remarkable man. Although Don may not be here anymore his memory lives on in so many. I feel truly blessed to have had the chance to meet him and your family and the love that you all have for each other is remarkable. I so loved to have fun with Don, wether it was him sitting on my lap laughing, telling me he ordered a pair of stilts so he could look me in the eye, there's so many awesome memories. Don was truly a man who loved life and loved his family more than anything and he will be missed. If I can do anything for you please let me know.

Grandma, im so sorry. i know you must feel terrible right now. i know i do. grandpa was an amazing person, and looking back on all the photos and times shared with him, makes me laugh. He was a funny, kind, great person. A party wasnt a party without him. And Snowman's ice cream deffinatley was at its best with him as the owner. Ask anyone around, and i bet they will agree. He lived a very sucessfull and fun lifetime and he is in a better place. Grandpa is, and will continue to be, terribly missed and loved. He will always be in my heart, and never ever forgotton. How could anyone forget a man like him? He was the best man i know. I loved him so much. Again, its a hard time for everyone in the family, but especially for you. You did a wonderful job taking care of him while he was sick and it was a good choice putting him in a home. Thanks grandma for everything you helped with and did for and with him. Im sure if he could live an extra 5 minutes, he would use it thanking you. I love you!

Dear Baker Family;
Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of Mr. Baker. Words can't describe the impact he had on all our lives. He was one of the nicest, most energetic people I have ever met. He truly lived the American dream... And although we are all shedding tears of sorrow now, I know they will turn to tears of joy as time passes and his memory grows in our mind's eye...
Sincerely;
