Mr. C.D. will be sadly missed as well as his comical stories that he sat around the campfire at Cob Webb and told. When my brothers and I were small, he was the highlight of the camp and we enjoyed seeing him there. My condolences go out to the whole Baker family in this time of loss.

I will miss Mr. Baker as I go down Sandy Point Rd. We had some good times fishing and hunting together here and Arkansas. He died doing what he loved best and where he felt closest to his father in heaven. My sympathy to all his family.
