Guest Book

I met Mrs. Baker being friends with her daughter Trinette. She has always been nice to me along with the Baker family. Mrs. Baker was a woman of faith and her love for family was outstanding. Stay strong family and God will see you thru it all. She was a class act and great mom. I love y'all. Praying for y'all strength during this difficult time.
