Hard to believe it' been 5 years! RIP dear Brother-in-law.

I am grateful for the life of Judge Baker. Thanks to his service and to the service of others in our armed forces, my family and I have been able to lead our lives in freedom and peace.

He was a member of the greatest generation. Like so many men his age, he never mentioned, at least, to me,that he landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day and received so many decorations. I will alwaysbe grateful to him for teaching me the words to "Casey Jones".

I will miss VIncent. Such a nice man to visit with.

Fran and Shane,
I have thought of you often. We so loved Vincent. Thoughts and prayers are with you. Nancy Lamb Charlotte N.C.

My favorite memory was Judge Baker and my Grand dad John Bredeman was over at my parents house singing Christmas carols in august after a night at the VFW and them my dad and I drove over to Judge Bakers house and he showed me his WW2 stuff which I thought it was awesome I'll miss those two great men

Sorry for the loss of a Super person. He would tell me his life in WWII and I would do the same when I was in Vietnam. I'm sure everything we said was TRUE????? I had five Uncles in WWII and they were all Superrmen. So I know the Judge is in Heaven and talking about the war at Happy Hour with them. My friend Judge Baker gave Unselfish Service to America. I hope St. Patrick gave you a safe trip to Heaven. RIP. I will miss you. Terry J Clark. Villach Austria & Raymore MO

So sorry to hear about Vincent. You guys are still the best neighbors we ever had.
Sending our love, Susan & Michael McDaniel
