  1. So sorry for your loss, what I know of Sam Baker just in the short amount of time he was with us at Baptist Convalescent Center, he was a kind and gently soul. He used to work with my grandfather Allan Bo Trapp many years ago. May God Bless you all in this sad time and help you all keep Sam's memories alive. Michelle Obert
