Carter,
I remember your Dad coming to the office and how delightful he was. He has a family to be proud of. I pray that you find peace & comfort in the memories he gave you. Carter, Virginia and children, at night when you look up to the heavens, you will see one more star than before shining down on the farm, watching over each of you as only a father and grandfather's love can.

Though these times of sorrow are
so hard to deal with, know that God is there for you always. Find comfort as
I have in Psalms 121.

All of my thoughts and prayers are with you through this. Mr. Baldwin was definately an individual that marched to the beat of another drum--that drum being his of course. He is in a better place where he is able to enjoy looking over the ones that he cares for most. With love and remembrance,

Carter and family,

My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Mr. Baldwin was a great man. I will never forget him farming our land and giving me rides in his combine as a little girl. He will be missed.
