Not sure what to say?

Sammy was such a Great Man! He took care of his parents and his wonderful Wife Barbara his best cousin will really love and Miss him a lot. Rest in Peace Cuz. I´m Marvin & Barbara Hirsch Savannah

I am so sorry that we did not keep in close contact with our family in Charleston as we should have. I am surprised to see Sammy was interested in cars and pets. Those are two things we had in common. I think we would have gotten along very well with such common interests. I know he will be missed by so many family and friends. Our deepest condolences to his family.

So sorry to hear about my childhood friend Sammie. I remember early days waiting for an SCE&G bus with Sammie and his Mom to go downtown, spending nights at the house, visiting the store and seeing Mr. Baker behind the counter with Sammie. Later on, hanging out at Middleton High, hanging out on his Yamaha 100 cc motorcycle, and after that, his 1st car, a lt. yellow Ford Galaxy 500 in the lot and later a Plymouth Duster, and a red Volare. I remember living on James Island and He tells Me about...

Sammie Baker left a void in the lives of all of us who knew and loved him. His big smile and genuine words of welcome had a disarming effect on those he encountered. He always thought of others and showed it by words and thoughtful ways. We could always count on him to keep us informed. I am not sure if he ever met a stranger because he had a way of putting you at ease quickly with his conversational tone. I am sure he will be looking down from heaven watching over Barbara and all of us...

Sammie is my big brother, and I am devastated with his loss. He took care of parents for both his side and wife Barbara's. At the age of 19 when our father passed, he helped Mother liquidate a business and helped Mother figure out the bills and all of the business end of life -- all the while being crushed that we had lost Daddy -- who Sammie Idolized. He was a wonderful teacher and cared more for his loved ones than himself. He was a guiding light for me as his little brother. I love...

I am so sorry for the loss of Sammy. I always enjoyed our visits when we came to Charleston. Sending the family love and prayers. Angela

My brother-in-law Sammy was a very loving and caring person, he would do anything for anyone no matter who they were, Sammy had no enemies, everyone loved him. I will cherish with all my heart the memories the good times the bad times. I love Sammy and will miss him More Than Words Can Say. Rest in peace my loving brother-in-law.

So sorry about the passing of Sammie. He was a dear friend and neighbor for pver 20 years before I moved. Loved him and Barbara coming over usually on Saturdays and had our talks mostly about politics and current events. He and Barbara were always helping me in one way or another. I treasured both of them. Sammie was really great explaining things and giving me advice when needed. I will miss him much but I know that now he is at peace. Keep in mind, Barbara, that Sammie was special in many...
