A month late, I just found out you left us. I called my dad (Thomas Baldwin Jr. or as you know him as "Bo") last night and he told me he had just gotten off the phone with my mom (Dorothy Lee Baldwin), she told him about your passing and when my dad told me, I had my first experience with my heart shattering into a million pieces. You were the best godfather I could have ever asked for, I just wish I would have been able to say goodbye, it's killing Dad that he couldn't, I don't think i've ever heard my dad choke up before, you were and forever will be his best friend "Bo". I didn't have a chance to tell you not only how much I think about you and Irene, but how much I think of you both, two amazing people. I'd always ask dad "Have you talked to Calvin or Irene lately?" And for the past 2 months he said he hadn't been able to get an answer, I knew something may have been wrong, but I also knew Irene and you were always on the go, or she was mowing! :) You will always be the only person that called me "Mantha", and always the one that gave me a hard time when I was a kid about my poodle Brandy, who you called "roofus". I can still hear you now, "Mantha, how's that roofus? You still strolling him around in that stroller?" Say hello to my aunt Linda Lou for me, I know she will show you around up there in heaven. Until we meet again know that I love you & miss you, forever will. You will never be forgotten. I am so very thankful you were able to meet my daughter, i'll be sure to tell her all about you when she gets older. I'll be taking a trip up in the next week or so to check on Irene. I attached a picture of you, thought everyone would get a smile from.
Love,
Mantha
