To the Baker Family and Friends, On behalf of the CSI-VA team, we extend our heartfelt sympathy to your family as you gather to honor and remember Mr. Baker. While many of us did not have the privilege of knowing him personally, we know Mary and the care, strength, and integrity she brings into her work and into the lives of those around her. We recognize that the values we see in her were shaped over a lifetime, and we hold deep respect for the family and experiences that helped form the person she is today. Loss touches every family differently, and we simply want you to know that we are thinking of you during this time. We hope that as you come together, you find comfort in shared memories, in one another’s presence, and in the legacy that continues through those who loved him. With sincere sympathy, The CSI-VA Staff

I get to know you from your loving daughter Mary. A sincere condolences go out to your entire family. What I’ve learned from life that sometimes the darkest times can bring us to the brightest places. Most of our struggles can grant us the necessary growth. I’ve learned that what seems like a curse at the moment can be a blessing. No matter how powerless we feel we can’t give up. Keep going Baker family, I know it’s scary right now, even when all your strength seems gone, pick yourselves back up, move forward because what you family is battling right now this too shall pass and you will make it through to whatever comes next. God bless you all and you all are in our prayers. Susan & Family.
