Worked for Nidec Motors for over 10 years and retired. He was a very kind and fun spirited person bringing laughter and joy to many, if not all of those he met. He was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather who loved his children and grandchildren. He was a volunteer for cub scouts, served in the United States ARMY 101st airborne, volunteer for the animal shelter, rescued several animals over the years, and he was also a volunteer auxiliary police department in Barrington, Illinois.
He is the only child of (Late)Minard Baldwin II and (Late)Ruth Baldwin, born in Chicago Illinois on November 17th, 1956. He is greeted into the after by Harold and Madeline Doll, loving aunt and uncle, his all through life and eternal best friend James Stralina, and loving mother-in-law Stella Studnicka.
He is survived by his loving wife Josephine Baldwin, his children David Baldwin and his wife Britta and grandchildren Kayla and Dustin, Teresa Secor and her husband Christopher and grandchildren Stella and Olivia, and Christina Richardson and her husband Kenneth. A brother-in-law Chester Studnicki and wife Linda. He had many friends and family who loved him dearly.
