Not sure what to say?

Wonderful professor, always like a fatherly figure, always passionate about his subject matters to ensure whoever came to him learned the material well. Like the saying of Gandhi: Live like you will die tomorrow, learn like you will live forever. Rest in Peace, Sir.

Mr Baxter was a great influence to me in my teens. He was a patient and helpful teacher as I struggled with many math concepts. I'll never forget the times he took me to the Phillies games, as long as they were playing the Cardinals, with his three daughters. I am sad that I was unable to pay my respects.

Like a fatherly figure, you will be missed greatly. May you rest in peace.

Thank you for the academic experience you gave.
