My deepest sympathy to the Baker family. I remember him fondly from the days when we were small children and he was on the Dudley Fire Dept with my Dad, Joe Maciejewski. He was a wonderful, kind, caring, man. Looked out for and cared for all. Rest in peace, Mr Baker.

Message from Robert T. Szacik

1Sgt. Baker was the most upstanding and loyal person I have ever had the privilege of knowing. He was definitely an man's man and a soldiers soldier. He lead by example. Always willing to help where needed. A no nonsense man who new how to cut out the BS and get right to the job and get it done. He helped many a young soldier (and a few of the older ones) become better soldier and better men. We worked together in both the military and civilian life, He was a true inspiration. I will miss him.

Message from The Talisman Family

Message from Bates C. Carter

To the family of First Sergeant Donald Baker:

My deepest sympathy. I served under First Sergeant Baker at the Webster Armory in the 181 Engineers from 1966-1972. First Sergeant Baker taught countless young men, myself included, the value of service and the responsibility of being a man. Throughout the chaos and uncertainty of the Vietnam era, he offered stability and a sense of direction with his steady, calm demeanor and concern for others.
