Not sure what to say?

I had the pleasure of working with Baker at Smith Barney. His professionalism, sound advice , wisdom and character will always resonate .

Baker was a true friend. He was a person whose word was his bond. If he said he was going to do something you could take it to the bank. We had many fun times coaching Mark´s baseball team; hunting in Sonora; skiing and hiking in Aspen and just spending time with Baker and Penny. Many many laughs and fond memories Our family was all together tonight and our daughter asked if we had been in contact with Baker and Penny recently and I said we had not. I typed Bakers name in and found his...

I was Baker´s classmate in Tomball from first grade on. He was always a great guy. After graduating in Tomball, he and I and two others left for Austin to attend UT. After that, I lost contact with him. Two weeks ago, he was on my mind and I was going to search for him. My cousin just called me to tell me read of his passing. Penny and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I just lost my husband of 64 years in November. I DO understand.

Baker McAdams was an extremely kind and considerate man who cared wonderfully for those of us around him. Hikes In gorgeous mountain hills with him and his kids. Times in Aspen at his condo during ski season. Him flying us in his plane. So many things I needed at that time, B&R, Inc. trips to Florida. Many of my best memories are from his efforts to be kind. Wonderful memories. Wonderful human being!!!

Sincere Condolences to the McAdams family.
