Mrs. Baker, Patty, and David, I'm so very sorry to see that Mr. Baker has passed away. I know the sadness you face, but there is some solace knowing he is resting with the Savior in Heaven. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May God truly bless each of you and bring you peace.

Mrs. Baker, Patty and David,
I am so very saddened to hear of Mr. David's homegoing! But to be absent from the body is to be present with God! I know he was welcomed at Heaven's gates by Jesus and many who loved him and have gone on before him.
My heart and prayers go out to each of you!
Love, Theresa

Buddy, Patty & family,

I know Mom is rejoicing in welcoming Uncle Bud home. Uncle Bud and Aunt Ann were both influential in our lives, and always such a pleasure to be around when we lived in the neighborhood. Although life has a way of separating distance and contact between family, he will always be remembered in our hearts. What a good man!
