Richard L. Baldwin

I had the pleasure of working with Rick at the State in the Bankruptcy Section. Everyone there loved working with him and knew he was a special person. He never had the ego that a lot of state employees have and he treated everyone with respect weather they were a grade three or grade thirty. He would always have a smile and joke, along with an upbeat additude that made it a pleasure to come to work. We all loved the in-house parties. Rick loved cooking for the section and I still have...

Uncle Rick, this is probably the hardest weekend ive had to go through since it happend. and i thought it would have gotten a little bit easier by now but it really hasnt. i went to visit you yesterday & i left a beautiful rose for you, to look upon and think of me. please just be happy and i promise one day you can put me ontop of your mantle.

I love you! so much

love your little one.

Just isn't the same around here without you bud. Hope you and Kevin are having a good time up there.

This is probably the hardest weekend ever. Not having you to go to the parade just isn't the same. Friday night was hard enough but tomorrow will be even harder. Everyone misses you every day. I am sure you and Kevin are busy cooking the corned beef feast. Love and miss you.

On this Friday night one year ago you left and created a big void in a lot of lives. I think of you and Kevin every day. I miss you brother.

Nascar season just isn't the same. Missed you at Daytona party. Where did 11 months go? Keep a watch over everyone. Miss you man.

Rick - 10 months gone by. Can't believe it's even been a day.

Miss you.

Came for a visit Christmas morning. Hope you know I was there. Sorry I couldn't do it last March, but you know how I am....
Forgot is was your Birthday too...Miss you still

Uncle Rick,

There is not a day that goes by without you crossing my mind at least once. The start of the new year doesn't make me miss you any less and really doesn't make you being gone any easier. I truly hope you are more happy where you are but hope you know that everyone misses you. I can still see you standing at the top of your stairs in your LITTLE yellow shorts with your dark tan in the dead of the winter while getting your hair dyed. Ha the mental picture cracks me up...
