IN LOVING MEMORY OF

Earl Baker came into many of our hearts and lives when the events surrounding Erica's disappearance unfolded nearly eight years ago.
The gentle giant, fondly known as "Pappaw" to all who knew and loved him, engraved an indelible place in our hearts with his sweet, soft, southern drawl and never-ending, welcoming smile.
We grieve today with his passing.
We pray for the loved ones he left behind, whose hearts are surely broken.
May they somehow find comfort in knowing he's gone on to a better place... knowing he's now reunited with the love of his life, Josephine, and his precious granddaughter, Erica.
May God be with you all during this time of sorrow.
~Friends of Erica
