Not sure what to say?

Such a nice couple,Dick and Betty, that joined the Boise camera club.I did work with them some,but the short meeting time never left enough to really know someone.What I did know was a man with so much life and thing to tell us.More time with Dick would have been nice.

Dr. Baker,

You have always been one of my favorite people. I met you the first
week that I moved to Boise in 1957
and we have been friends ever since.
You were the family doctor for both
my family and my husband's family.
You were the kind of doctor who would come to the house if necessary. You took my father-in-law to the hospital in your own car.
You were kind,friendly,brilliant and
caring,with a twinkle in your eye.
I baby-sat your kids,you healed...

Brunda and I met Dick and Betty through Camera club. Both of them welcomed us with an open arm and we were always looking forward to see them during club meetings. I am sure that we will miss a wonderful friend.

To be in the presence of Dick was in the presence of brillance and greatness veiled in humility. We so appreciate our friendship and have always felt such support from the Baker family which is a reflection of Dick's acceptance and compassion. All our love,

To my friend Dick that is what I got to know you by in the Boise Camera Club. You loved life and a great attitude toward living. Also you had a big kind heart. I never seen you complain if you weren't feeling very good or had a lot of pain. I know your in a good place and your beautiful wife will be with you soon!

Dr. Baker, Your life inspired so many - how loved you will always be. To me, you were an example of kindness, brilliance, charm and wit. Your blue eyes believed in me, and make me still want to look to the stars. I know where the twinkle comes from. See you there, in time.

I have lots of wonderful memories from the last year and a half. You always made me feel special. You will be missed so much.
