Mike and I were saddened by the news of Barbara's passing. She was the only living original owner on Mitscher Street that we knew. She had been our neighbor for 37 years. We have many fond memories of the Baker family. She was a wonderful and sweet person and our neighborhood will not be the same without her. Rest in peace Barbara! Our sincere condolences and prayers of comfort go out to the entire Baker family.
With sympathy,
N. S.

My heart goes out to all the Bakers for your loss. My fondest memories, living and growing up on Mitscher Street so many years ago but often seeming like only yesterday, are of your mom and dad and your entire family. True friends; true extended family! Thoughts and prayers.
