I work at Walsh and would see Chuck in the faculty are before class. He was always so kind and would take the time to speak with me. He always made me laugh. He was such a sweet person and I am so sorry for your loss.

I am a student at Walsh College, and I had a class this summer with Professor Baker. Even he was tried last class, he came just to make sure if we had any question. He was kind and caring. I had a good time in his class, and he was one of my favorite professor at Walsh College. May Bless his soul, and may rest in Peace. I am sorry for your lost.

I worked in the Admissions and Advising department at Walsh College and had the pleasure of meeting Professor Baker. He always had a smile on his face and pleasant word or two. God Bless and may he rest in peace.
