2 Corinthians 4:18 When eyes of blind ones see again And ears of deaf ones hear again, When deserts blossom as the rose And from parched ground fresh water flows, When lame ones leap just like the hart, When loved ones never have to part, Such blessed times you'll realize, If you keep your eyes on the prize. When tongues of mute ones speak again, When old ones will be young again, When earth will yield her rich increase And all good things will never cease, When songs of children fill the air, When joy and peace are everywhere, Then, too, you'll see the dead arise, If you keep your eyes on the prize.
In Loving Memory of

Donald Baker January 10, 1940 December 29, 2017
Donald retired from Huntsville Utilities as a Service Rep. He attended S.R. Butler High School then got a GED. He married Elizabeth Lusk on February 1, 1961 and raised 3 children. He began studying the Bible and he and his wife got baptized in 1972 as Jehovah’s Witnesses. This brought a big change in their lives. Family vacations were combined with religious conventions in many cities and states. After retirement, Donald and Elizabeth traveled. They liked Disney World so much they went the next year. Also made many trips to Memphis, Gatlinburg and Panama City. After being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, their lives slowed down. More TV time! They both enjoyed a favorite soap opera “Days of our Lives” for 50 years. Family and friends will remember him as a loyal, good man, joyful, funny, big hearted with a personality that wouldn’t quit. He will not soon be forgotten! He loved his family and his family loved him!
