Not sure what to say?

Bill Baird was ne of the finest teachers I had! I studied Galatians under his lead. What a fine fellow, who had a fabulously gre at attitude of grace. Thank to Dr. Baird for his dedicated life! Jim Stovall

He was our pastor early 1940s at Fall Creek Christian Church SE of Eugene & Springfield, Oregon.

Condolences for your grief. He was a wonderful teacher who taught his students so much more than scripture. He lived and taught the Living Word, Jesus Christ.

As a student at Lexington Theological Seminary in the mid-1960s, I had the privilege of majoring in New Testament with Dr. Baird. His teaching style was one which affected my own later. I have read most of his books, even the most recent. Continuing to learn at 76 is his legacy to me.

If Lisa or Eric see this, then please tell Shirley I just saw Bill's obituary and am saddened to hear of his passing. She can call me if she wants 817 361 7945...I haven't heard from them for a while. Peggy Cohen and I tried calling, left msg but no one called back.

Time slips away; I didn't realize Bill and were that far apart in age! My condolences to Shirley and family. Bill - the first prof. of New Testament who refreshingly unfolded the scriptures and endowed me with a wish to continue learning more. ROBERT STEFFER

Dr. Baird was a great teacher and served the Christian Church (DOC) well. Earned his halo for sure. Honor to know him.

Dr. Baird will forever be remembered for his kindness and scholarship. He was always happy and smiling. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Shirley, Lisa and Eric. Memory Eternal!

Blessings,

Dr. Baird was perhaps the kindest professor I had in my graduate studies at Brite Divinity School. He taught the God's Word with great clarity. He will be missed and he left a great legacy of scholarship and excellence.
