I never knew Mark, but his son has been a sorce of strength for me kind and compassionate always willing to help anyone in need. I would like to think these traits are true of Mark as well. I am thankful that he was a saved man and grateful for him taking the word of God to the streets and prisons where it was most needed. My deepest sympathy to the Baker family, it's hard letting go but know Jesus has him now he dances before God in all his glory.

We met Mark in church in SC. He was a kind and generous man. A down to earth fellow who loved the Lord. He loved people and always showed he cared. He was happy to move near his son. The world was a better place with him in it. He was missed when he wasn't on his computer anymore, and will be missed earthside. Heaven gained one of their own!
