Dear Benson Family,

The Baker Family (Mike, Susan, John, Jason, Cailin and Priscilla)send our heart felt condolences.Veronica Benson was an influence on Mike Baker's life in so many ways. I had the pleasue of meeting Mrs. Benson in 1973 and at that moment I was made to feel as part of the family.I remember as if yesterday the conversations in the kitchen which to this day will always be treasured in my mind and heart since those conversations taught me many things which helped make me the person I am today.

Thank You Verny

Love to the Benson Family

Mike Baker and family
