The world has a little less love in it with the passing of Michael A. Baltier. Mike Baltier loved the Lord, Family, Country and those he came in contact. He was an extremely compassionate and respectful person. My dearest and sincere sympathy goes out to my Aunt Pat and the rest of the Baltier family, my Uncle Mike's friends in Reading & the wonderful groups and associations he belonged.

Mr. Baltier,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army-especially during WW II, the Korean and Vietnam Wars. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
