John R. "Bobby" Baker

My thoughts and prayers are with the Baker family. I've known Bobby since I was tiny because of he and my father being so close.

Bobby was a fine man and I appreciated having the honor of knowing him.

Our condolences go out to you and your family during your time of sorrow.

Dear Baker Family,
We are so sorry for your loss.

The Taffs & Bakers go way back in time to my grandfather, Earl Taff & my Dad, Ed Taff who worked with and for Bakers Dairy for years.

It helps to remember the memories that God puts in our hearts of our loved ones moment by moment, hour by hour and then day by day. Your faith will carry you through this valley because we all know God is in control. I know as I lost my 19yr old son Nicholas in January of...

Mary Ellen, Becky, Jane and family members, like many others around Gardendale, Bobby sold us our first insurance policies over 40 years ago and took care of all our needs through the years.

Mary Ellen, you've been our dear friend since our elementary school days and we love you and mourn your tremendous loss. May God keep you and the...

Bobby was a great friend. He was warm and cordial every time you met him. He and I had many conversations in the last two years about the good times and our health problems. I will miss him and his happy greeting. Mary Ellen may God sustain you in this hour. Here is a tribute to your dedication and devotion to Bobby.

My deepest sympathy to the family at your time of loss. Bobby was a special man to alot of people in the Gardendale area. He sold me my first insurance policy before I really knew how important all that would be one day with a growing family. Mary Ellen, may God grant you strength during this time and give you peace in knowing that Bobby is no longer suffering.

I worked for Bobby for years. He was a terrific boss and friend over the years. I will miss him as I know so many others will.
