Dr. Bill R. Baker

I’m sorry to hear about Dr. Baker’s death. He always meant so much to my parents. I so appreciated his attentiveness to my dad after he had a stroke. Dr. Baker visited regularly and just sat and visited with him. Heaven has gained a good man.

I am so sorrybto hear about Brother Baker. You and Brother Bill were an important part of my life. You gave me a love for music that has only gotten stronger. Praying for you. Sincerely , Kathy Tedder.

He baptized me and Performed my marriage at FBC Clinton. He was a godly and kind man, and always pointed people to Christ.

He married my parents in Mantee, MS in 1962. He was so loved by all in Mantee, MS and him and Mrs. Jill's name comes up often in old stories told. I saw him at Chapel at MC one day in 1993 or 1994 and introduced myself. What a great man!! So sorry for your loss Mrs. Jill. I am Max & Mary Johnson's daughter. My dad sends his love and sympathies.

I knew Bill Baker from his coming to Clinton onward. He and Jill were always the best of friends and the best Christian supporters I ever had; all the way from joys to the depths of sorrow, they never let me down. I will miss Bill and hope to be with him again someday.

Dr. Baker was such a big part of my life. He married my parents in Calhoun City and then baptized me in Clinton. It came full circle when he helped marry me back in Calhoun City. I took piano lessons from Mrs. Jill. Such a sweet, sweet man. We will miss him but I know he is rejoicing in Heaven.

Oh how we loved this great man of God! He was so special to our family! I know he is singing as he walks the streets of gold! Sending my love to Jill!

Dr. Baker was everything a pastor should be. I was 16 when he and Jill came to FBC Clinton and I look up to them as examples, still.

Dr Baker was our first Pastor at FBC Clinton when we married in 1984. He will always have a special place in my heart. He and his beautiful wife Jill exemplified class. RIP
