Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry to hear of Chick´s passing. Pennie and Chick and my parents became friends in 1960, I think. So long ago. We would visit occasionally over the years, in both Worcester and the Cape, and were always welcomed with warmth and friendship. The times are long gone but the memories remain. Peace.

To all of "Uncle" Chick's family: Uncle Chick was a close family friend and doctor, as well as a loving father, husband and active member of the Jewish community. I will miss visiting with him again, like I did two years ago. He and "aunt" Pennie were my daughter Stephanie's godparents and she adored both of them, just like I did. Sending love to all of you, Love, Elizabeth

I was so sorry to learn of Dr Baum's passing. He was one of the first people we met as our family doctor when we moved to Worcester in 1960. I remember his housecalls when I was sick, his great big smile and twinkling eyes, and how proud he was of me when I became a nurse and then nurse practitioner. He was so kind and helpful to his dear friends, the Treisters, our next door neighbors. What a lovely person he always was. So sorry for his family on their loss.

Our deepest sympathies to you on the passing of Dr Marvin Baum. My mom lives at Eisenberg Assisted Living as did Dr Baum. He was always a gentleman, very kind and polite to everyone. May your happy memories help to sustain you.
Sincerely, Bernadette and Brian Nelson and May Racine.

Also, Faith, I am thinking of you as well. Your dad was so proud of you and always mentioned you in our conversations. I apologize my commission of you in my condolence message.

Love,

Elizabeth

I am so sorry to hear about the death of Uncle Chick. He was not only our family doctor, but a beloved friend to me and my parents. I am so grateful that I was able to visit him when I was in Massachusetts last summer. He was one of the kindest men I have ever met . Pennie and Chick were the godparents to my daughter, Stephanie.

As a child , the Baums opened their home to me when my parents went on vacation. I will always treasure those precious memories, as they wade a huge...

Chic was a good friend to our family and such a stand-up kind of guy. Always had a smile and a kind word. He was so caring to his peers as they aged. It's hard for me to imagine Worcester without him. He will be dearly missed and warmly remembered.

I am very sorry for your loss. Dr. Baum was my doctor growing up, I remember him fondly.

Dr Baum was always a big supporter of the Worcester District Medical Society Alliance
(as well as the WDMS).Penny was an active member as well.
When I became president (WDMSA), Dr Baum was instrumental in establishing a core group of nurses and administration on the local and state public health level to identify the importance of immunizations for children. The "Teddy Bear"magnet board was designed by the WDMSA who took an active role in distributing these reminder boards to hospitals...
