Edward Baker

Dear John,
my brother just told me this Thanksgiving he'd seen Ed's obit in the Globe. There are so many memories of him and none leave me feeling empty --which I'm sure is paradoxical, since it should be a loss when such a bright star becomes a Supernova, then enters the mysterious Black Hole of the invisible.
He once said he was getting tired of always having to be the Life of the Party (that was before he met you!) --now, wherever he is, which I feel is somewhere close,...

Deepest Sympathies to John on Ed's passing. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers

God Speed Ed

john , Dan and I just heard from Cynthia of Eddies death, We are so sorry,Have loved Ed since early Mass art days. love the Kellehers

John, please know my thoughts are with you and your family. Ed was a wonderful person and brightened many a long days in Boston Ballet's costume shop with his humor and wit!

I loved working and traveling with Ed. I was always thankful for his humor and perspective. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I remember Ed fondly from his years working at Boston Ballet. I was sad to hear the news of his passing. I send my sympathies to John and his family at this sad time.

I always loved working with Ed. He was always ready with a good laugh.

I am filled with sadness and great memories one and at the same time. My most immediate memory is of building sand castles on sagamore beach while sipping Tequilla. We had such fun! Then living together in Sandwich Ed would whip me up a dress in an hour for an event. I held on to those dresses for years. Over the years we lost some contact but I always saw him at Harvard Community Health Plan where he got his healthcare and I worked. We very recently had a long phone call where he filled me...

the Cary,Hallett,McNutt families have had numerous happy memories and shared experiences with Ed..this loss hits us greatly,as we remind ourselves of the laughter over many story tellings over(many)glasses of wine!our thoughts are with you & your daughters John.
