    Dear Susan, I am so saddened by the passing of your Mom and my sweet friend, Mrs. Baker. My time as neighbors with her share space in my life as one of the sweetest times. 4th of July has never been the same as the ones spent sharing them with she and your family on Court St.. She taught me how to be gracious and kind, accepting, but how to stand up when necessary. She was truly one of a kind, and her passing is such a loss. She'll remain in my heart always. Love Tammie.

    Dear Sue and family, So sorry to hear that "sweet " Mary Baker has passed on. I was so blessed to have worked with her at the Town Hall. Her wisdom, strength, sense of humor and her no-nonsense approach to life was such an inspiration to me. She was a one of a kind gem. I know many people will be "calling " her in heaven for her prayers! May she rest in peace. Love, Trish Carroll

    Dear Auntie May, Although the years slipped away, I will always remember and cherish the memories of your sense of style, how you carried yourself with confidence, the Sunday afternoons when you would stop by the house for coffee and desert with Uncle Ab and Ma, the 4th of July cookouts at your house, Kenny's birthday parties at Cold Park; all such fond memories I will carry with me forever. For this, I am grateful. You are an inspiration, a kind and gentle soul. I wish you peace. You will always remain in my heart, my thoughts and my prayers. I love you - Jimmy
