    To the Bakeman Family:

    what a truly wonderful memorial it was for my dear friend Keith.
    His children and family made a soul searing occasion bearable.
    The heartfelt and funny stories and all those pictures were priceless.

    I personally would have liked to have shared 1 or 2 stories of my own, like how much he made “MA” ( my grandmother) laugh and taking her to play her numbers LOL. But I am still sitting with the reality that he is gone.

    I didn’t see him as often as I would have liked, but there was always a connection that went back decades.
    It is a strange feeling knowing he is no longer with us. I will miss him and Keith if there is an afterlife, I’ll see you someday at the “telephone booth in the back ”

    All My Love,

    Stephanie

    Very happy to have had you in my life during my childhood, Keith. Thanks for being the one at our kichen table to teach me to shade my drawings by always moving my hand in the same direction. I still think about that to this day when I paint. Rest in peace.

    All my love to the family. Love you guys.
