To the family of Mr. Baker, My deepest condolences to you. I didn't know Mr. Baker, but he taught my small Rhetoric class years back and we learned so much from him. The wisdom that man conveyed to us was so insightful and biblical, and I know he left a meaningful mark on his students' lives. He left one on me. I've missed him since that class was over, and I miss him more now. He is in a much better place now, and I believe God has a special place for this special leader. Prayers for your family. God bless you. Always remember that God's timing is perfect, and He loves you so much.

Heaven awaits you Scott. You were a dear classmate and so nice to hear of your love for the Lord and your church. My deepest sympathy to his family.

Starlet, I have prayed for you both so often and clung to the fact you were so happy, praying you’d have joy everyday of your life. I cannot imagine how hard and what a loss this is. I’m so extremely sorry. From what I’ve heard, Scott is a gentleman with a tender heart, and I could tell from even the little I’ve heard that you dearly loved each other. My prayers continue for you. May God hold you tightly and fill you with the peace and comfort only He can give. I love you, Starlet.

I will always remember standing beside you for high school graduation-... I was about to start crying and you started snorting because- you said a bug flew up your nose. ?? Hope you have great bike rides in heaven- wish I could have ridden with you.
