We know that your loss is monumental. But as Jesus, Les is Home.
Jesus Walked Among Us
He walked awhile among us
so that we might better see
the breadth of His compassion...
His love for you and me.
He walked awhile among us,
giving all He had to give,
to set us an example...
to teach us how to live.
He left His place in heaven,
His glory and His throne
and walked awhile among us
to show the way back home.
Our Sympathys are with you.

Mary, Vicki, Lisa, Jeff, Sherry and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of Les and will always remember his love of feeding the animals at night outside of his home. They were very well fed I might add! My prayers are with you all during this time of loss and mourning and will always be with you. God Bless.

It has been a privilege to have known the Baker family in a short period of time; and yet seemed like they've been a long-time friends. Mary, I commend you of your patience, severity, love and care to your husband and to your 2 children. May God be your strength.
May he rest in peace.

A precious one from us is gone,
a voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in the home,
that never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled,
the one His Love had given.
All though his body slumbers here
his soul is safe in Heaven
He’s in a better place right now,
than he’s ever been before.
All pain is gone; he’s now at rest,
nothing troubles Les anymore.
It’s we who feel the burden of
our sadness and our grief.
We have to cry, to mourn our loss,
before we get relief.
Our hearts are reaching out to you,
for what you’re going through.
We’re thinking of you frequently
and praying for you, too.
We hope, from our hearts, that your pain will decrease,
that your spirit will gain strength again.
We pray that your faith will create inner peace,
and that God will send you and your family blessings--Amen
Your Friends,
Bob & Barbara Williams

Mr. Baker was a quiet man but demonstrated great strength. He owned his own business and was always tinkering with something. But on race day you would find him in front of the TV. We did talk him into going to one Buc game but his favorite part of the game was the fly overs. Still honoring his wings from the air force. He was loved by many as was demonstrated at he and his wife Mary's 50th anniversary. It was packed! Many of them life long friends. Only special people have life long friends. Mr. Baker was one of those people and he will be missed and remembered by many who loved him.
