David C. Baker

I was blessed to have met Dave and his wonderful wife Barbara by way of his lovely daughter Pamela.

Dave and I,...our careers were similar as we earned our living from the insurance industry. We enjoyed chatting about the fast pace industry changes that constantly took place. He never once complained. He embraced changes with a great attitude. Moreover, many years ago, Dave unselfishly took the time to guide me through many complex estate planning issues that helped my Mom immensely, and will help others for decades ahead. He was one of the finest people I have ever met in my life.

Dave's shared intelligence, reliability, passion and commitment to his family, friends, and business clients was consistent and admirable. His keen sense of empathy along with his sincere desire to help others will always be remembered and revered by me.

My sincerest condolences to Mrs. Barbara Baker, Pamela and family.

Rest in peace Dave. You will be missed.

I was a secretary at New York Life approximately 30 years ago and I remember Dave always being so happy and giddy. I will always remember the photo he loved to show of his "pride and joy". RIP, you lovely man.

The only person who had a greater sense of humor than Dave was my Dad. Not only a real insurance pro, but just a great guy to be around. God bless you, Dave. I'll miss you!

didn't know dave personally, but what a nice man. RIP. don dormody

David: My memory of you is the way you would pop into my office and bomb me with your funny,funny stories.You made my office a fun place. I will always miss you. God bless you.

During my days at the Northern Ohio General Office of New York Life, Dave always brought a breath of fresh air every time he came into a room. He will be greatly missed.

Dave sponsored me into the insurance business with New York Life. I am eternally grateful to have had the opportunity, and to have known Dave.

David was a neighbor of mine at 55 Public Square years ago. He was wonderful, friendly man of whom I have affectionate memory. My condolences to his family and friends.
