Love First is currently celebrating their Tenth Year Anniversary and the only thing I thought about was Mudge's smile. Last year this time, she was with me when I was Baptized, and now I am missing her so much. I know she is in heaven sharing that wonderful smile with all the angels. Please know I pray for the Baxter/Carter families' strength both day and night through these hard times, and I am just a phone call away.

I did not know the Baxter family but I did work with Cindy at the YMCA and she always knew how to make me laugh. She truly touched many children's lives and will be missed. God bless you and your family!

I am so deeply sadden and shocked to hear of the passing of Mudge. I haven't seen your family in many years but when my sister Jean Smith called and informed me, I was very touched. I have known Baxter family when I attended the C.O.G.B.F. in Buffalo when it was under the late Elder Otis Bostic. I truly believe God will not put more on you then you can bear. My prayers are with you all and I know she is in a better place. God Bless and Give You the strength to stand.
Yours in Christ

TO THE BAXTER FAMILY THIS IS STILL A SHOCK TO ME BECAUSE WE ALL GREW UP IN THE SAME NEIGHBOR AND EVERYONE IS GOING HOME SO YOUNG. I KNOW THAT WHEN GOD SAY IT IS TIME IT IS TIME THIS IS HIS WORLD. HE HAS ONLY ALLOWED US A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME TO ACCOMPLISH THE THINGS IN LIFE THAT NEED TO BE COMPLETED. FROM MY FAMILY I WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND MY PRAYERS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. MAY GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY.
