Not sure what to say?

My best wishes to Dirk's family. Dirk and I worked together in DDI and he was a very accomplished consultant. I enjoyed every minute of my work with him. He was the ultimate professional. Perhaps after all these years there is comfort in knowing that he was a really great guy. I remember he would do anything for anybody, he was that nice.

I would like to talk to anyone who knew Dirk. If you knew him, you know that the world needs more of him, every day.

A couple of months ago, reminiscing about graduate school at UGA, I remembered Dirk. I thought I'd look him up and see how he was doing. I was shocked to learn of his passing. I am so sorry for this. Your heartfelt tribute to Dirk belies what is clearly a deep love for your son, brother, and husband. I can imagine the hole he has left, and how poignant this must feel approaching his birthday. Dirk was a compassionate friend to me during graduate school - a time that I think most PhD students...

It is with great sadness and shock to hear of Dirk's passing. We extend to all of Dirk's family and friend our deepest and heart-felt condolences.

In loving memory of your dear son~thinking of you and your family.
Jeanie, Merriel, and Vicky

Condolences to the Baxter family. Please find comfort through family and friends at this difficult time. Even though the pain of this loss is great now, I hope this can bring you hope for the future. Hosea 13:14

My deepest sympathies to the Baxter families. May the God of all comfort be with you all during this time.

May the God of all comfort and peace give the family peace and strength to endure. Psalm 121:1-3

I was heartbroken to hear of the passing of your son Dirk. I knew his lovely mother Joan. After being on the Island only two weeks, Joan came over to greet our new born daughter. I can only imagine Dirk's character with parents as wonderful and kind as they were/are. May his Memory be Eternal.
