To my favorite Sister, 
We all feel the loss of Jim with you, Sis.  There are so many good memories of the barbeques and dinners we had together.  Jim was always a good inspiration to be around.  I feel like we have all lost a truly wonderful friend.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.  Love, Ray & Lillie (Knightdale, N.C.)

DEAR FRANCES,
JIM AND I DEER HUNTED FOR MANY YEARS. STARTING IN THE EARLY DAYS WHEN WE BOTH WORKED AT IBM. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE FIRST TIME JIM COOKED SCRAMBLED EGGS AND BACON IN HIS CAMPER AFTER AN EARLY AM HUNT FROM OUR TREE STANDS. AS I CAME TO HIS TREE THAT COLD MORNING I COULD HEAR HIS TEETH CHATTERING. IT DIDN'T TAKE HIM LONG TO CLIMB DOWN AND COOK BREAKFAST. HE WAS A TRUE FRIEND AND WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.     BUDDY & SALLY BIERCE (SMITHFIELD, NC)

Missing our friend Jim already. Our memories and stories will keep him alive forever. Love you Frances.

 Thanks for the memories. One last toast to ya'll.

the thing I will miss about Uncle Jim is his smile because no matter what he went through he always smiled.  Love ya

Jim, you will be sorely missed by all of us. We love you Francis and you are in our hearts and prayers

Frances and Family;  I am so sorry to hear that Jim has passed, I have been away from home for the last few days and only got Graham Browns note this morning.  Sorry that I could not attend last night or today, but you will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Framces, my deepest sympathy to you and the rest of the Baker family. I will always have fond memories of the conversations I had with Jim and admired his intellect, knowledge and perfectionism. I certainly enjoyed hearing his wit mixed in with the conversations.

I will forever remember Jim for his brutal honesty and ability to challenge your way of thinking, regardless of right or wrong. I will forever cherish his talent of wood working, by the beautiful piece of furniture he made me. Jim gifted me my first dermal tool which has inspired my own love for wood work.  "May he rest in peace." My deepest regrets to the entire family. My thoughts are with each of you.... Frances, Michael, Scott and Lauren.

I can hardly believe he is gone.  I can still hear his "rules" and stories as if he had just spoken the words a few minutes ago.  We will miss him greatly.  Our condolences to his family and other friends. I still rattle off one of the Baker Rules when an appropriate situation presents itself. We will miss you greatly..... as you always used to say, it is a sad day for everyone when you are gone.

Frances, so sorry for your loss. I wish momma and I could be there this evening, but as you know, we laid him to rest today. Please let Michael and Scott know that we are thinking of you all at this time.

We will always remember Jim as a good man who loved life, family, friends and a good conversation. Frances, we will always have those wonderful memories. Gene amd I love you so much and will always be hear for you.

Frances and family members of Jim,  Jim was a dear sweet person and I remember you and Jim with love and fond memories while I lived in Raleigh area.  You were a great"team" and you made him very happy! 
You are in my thoughts and prayers.  Frankie Tadlock Coleman, Wallace NC

Francis and family, Annie and I are sorry to hear of Jim's Passing. Jim was a one-of-kind guy. We always enjoyed being around him and many of the interesting discussions we had about 'a little of everything." Jim was very knowledgeably about so many things that he always had his interesting views and added color to the discussion. The beautiful home and furniture that he built from wood are a tribute to his skills and dedication, and love for natures gifts. The exquisite furniture he made will be a legacy to those who loved him.  We will miss him.
Herb Vogt and Annie Seymour (Durham NC)

Our deepest sympathy for your loss.  Paul remembers several weekends helping build the log house...from the fireplace to chinking the walls.
