Not sure what to say?

Frieda and the entire Baker family, we were so sorry to hear of the loss of "Uncle Bruce". I have so many great memories of our families relaxing together, especially at Uncle Floyd's cabin. I think that Bruce was the only person that continued to use my childhood nickname each time we spoke..."Moonie" will always bring a smile to my face because of him. I am so sorry I was unable to see you all in person this week. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. With love, Diana,...

Donna & Dale, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family at this time of your loss.
Sincerely, Peggy and Bob Lunn

Dale and all the Baker family,
We are very sorry that we were unable to attend the services. Tom's Aunt Marion passed away the day after your father. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Donna and Family,
I have to travel for work and may not be able to make it Monday night, so I just wanted to leave a quick note. I'll never forget how welcoming your Dad and Mom were when I came to visit you during your recooperation from Pneumonia. I drove by for 30 years and always wished I could be gardening and mowing the lawn like your Dad, when I'm his age. My thoughts and Prayers are with you and your family.

Bruce & I go way back to the rodeo days...Bruce was good to everyone, that's what we loved about him; no one could replace him. I enjoyed his stops at Moore Tire when he would pick on me. He teased Frannie if he saw her downtown and say, "Are you waiting on Normie again?" He was such fun. We will sure miss him...

Donna... I just heard about your dad, I did not know him but if he where like you I'm sure he was a good peerson. I can't attend the funeral as I go into back surgery Thuesday. I'll be thinking of you. Ron Joseph

To Frieda and Family.
I first met Bruce in 1952 working at Stakmore and I have always enjoyed seeing him and talking with him. We last saw him at your garage sale and he still had that great sense of humor. What a pleasure to have known him. We are sorry for your loss and you have our sympathy.

Our deepest heartfelt sympathies go out to each of you in a very special way at this time of Bruce's passing. He was a very special,warm,humorous,kind, and loving man, and we will always remember sharing "Christmas-Cheer" each year in your home which he so loved ! I am so glad that both of you were able to attend my 80th Surprise Birthday Party at Dave and Kim's this past August.It was very special to have both of you there with me, and our families !
Ellie Warner (and family)
