Dear Merrit and Family, I just want to share one more egg roll with Miriam...the original Jewish "Santa Claus". My substitute Mother when I was so far from home. She was, as you know; generous, witty and kind. She's in my heart forever.

Dear Merrit and Reid -

I remember your Mom with the fondest of memories growing up on Summerdale Avenue, especially her array of Halloween costumes for all of us to borrow. We all had some fun times together. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Aunt Mickey was always one of our favorite relatives. When we think of her we'll always remember her amazing "stories" told with that wonderful sense of humor and that beautiful smile. She was truly special.
Our hearts are with you at this most difficult time.

Love you guys,
Robin and Jim

My thoughts are with the entire Baker family. What a wonderful spirit Miriam was to all that had the opportunity to meet her.

Reid, Merrit and Family,
I have so memories of growing up with your family and sharing wonderful vacations, holidays and simchas. Micki was a terrific person - full of personality, a quick wit, fabulous cook, devoted mother and grandmother, good and helpful friend, daughter, wife, niece and cousin. Words will never convey her essence, courage and positive being.
Although we are far away, you are in our thoughts and prayers.
