Dr. Guy Baldwin

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. I always enjoyed flying with Guy. I remember doing the loops and hammerhead turns, O my stomach.

Where do I start? In the late 70's I met Guy at Riverside airport where had just started at Spartan school of aeronautics. Both being airplane nuts we quickly became friends. Over the years he often would switch hats between friend, doctor, mentor....you name it, Guy was there for you. After moving to California Guy loved to call me at 7AM when he got in the office......5AM my time. After a while when the phone rang that early My wife or I would would just pick up the phone and say "good...

Doc was an excellent person, friend, and a great pilot advocate. I was a student at Spartan School of Aeronautics when I first had to go see him for my medical. I suffer from acute white coat syndrome, but when I went into his office that all went away. He was a very polite man and always wanted to help pilots as well as teach them. I remember one time while flying with my regular instructor, seeing doc and his extra fly past my wing. He instantly shook his wings and did a complete barrel...

We will certainly miss "Doc" I knew him for about 20 years and my life was better because of him. Thanks for everything - I will see you on the other side.

Doc...was such a wonderful man I was not personally close to him but my father Jack Tessmann thought the world of him I know Doc has given my dad his flight physicals for 20 years but they hunted together, flew together and had great memories together but not till recently did I know that Doc seen my brother in his office when poison ivy covered most of his body and knowing my dad and my familys' financal strain at the time he had already paid for the visit before check in. That is just one...

My dad was an amazing man. Im so proud of everything he did. I miss him so much. Im sure that he was very happy when he saw my brother flying his plane during the missing man formation at the funeral reception. Love you daddy... And thanks to all you guys for the food flowers and letters.
