I always enjoyed meeting with Frank over a cup of coffee to discuss matters Baytree, followed by sharing our experiences of early years in NYC - he was an intelligent and most engaging person. Julie and I will regrettably be unable to attend services but thoughts and prayers will be with the family.

I was privileged to serve on the Baytree Board of Directors when Frank was President. He was a consummate leader: knowledgeable, fair and friendly. Frank was an asset to Baytree and a friend to me and Jack. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with Karen and family during this difficult time.

Frank Baker was a mentor to me , and his advice was always delivered with a wry grin and a sailing storey. I learned to listen to him very carefully, and respect him always. I will very much miss him

I am so sorry for your loss.
My brother and I were good friends of Godfry's in the early 1970's. I only met Mr. Baker a few times, and I was very young.
He sounds like an amazing person who wasn't afraid to think outside of the box and to act on his bold ideas.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family in this difficult and sad time.
