Comments:

Cynthia (Cindy) passed away 8+ years ago. I am still trying to honor her wishes to celebrate her life as it was. She was such a good and kind lady - a true Christian. She was a philanthropist - always there to help anybody in need.

My love for her is stronger than ever; we have been deeply in love since high school (maybe even longer).

List any BAKER LION brothers and/or sisters! Or brothers/sisters who went to other schools - understand - it happened! And also, please let us know your parents' names and whether they went to Baker or not....and what Class year!

Donnie, Seems out of place to wish you a Happy Birthday (but I do), in light of what I just read on your profile. I am so very sorry for your loss. If there is anything I can do you have only to ask. I have a conchlear implant now but it is being re-set so I can't receive phone calls, but if you need to call, do so, no matter how late and I will get on the computer with you for now. Don't have any words of wisdom, but I will tell you I've been there and hobbies and "groups" talking about didn't help me. It's people man and wallowing in the memories. You can't do it alone, it's too painful to try, and I don't think Cindy would want that for you. You take care my friend, Ronnie
