    To the Baker family: We were so saddened to hear of the tragic loss of your son, and brother. We lost our son at 17 also, he was also was a Sr. at North, and was getting ready to graduate, when he died in Feb. We know of the shock and pain that you guys are feeling; 'going through the motions', numbness, and the void that is so ominous in your lives. We are praying God will give you strength, and a peace that passes all understanding. He can and will hold you if you trust in Him. We don't know or have answers, but just have the simple faith of a child, and look to him for your source of strenghth when you feel you have no more. Our prayers and Christian love to you and your family....if we can do anything for you, please let us know; we share your pain and grief. THE WHITE FAMILY

    I remember Allen would visit my Leisure sports class as a freshman. He was so small compared to the older kids in my class. He was full of energy and wasn't one bit afraid to compete with or against them. Very sweet young man, gone too soon. My regards and prayers are with his family. Please trust in the Lord that His will be done in all things, and in all things praise Him.
