What a long life she had! I am sorry for the loss of your Mom. My Mom spoke fondly of Eunice. May all your memories wrap their arms around you and sustain you in the days ahead.
My condolences to your family. Her and George were such a big part of my youth. I have been left with many fond memories. Now they will be together again. Rest in peace Eunice.

Linda,
I sure loved your mom when I worked at Villa. I’m so sorry to read she’s gone. I’ll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Prayers sent to all the family and friends….May aunt Eunice be filled with only tears of joy in heaven, until we join her and see our Heavenly Father…Rodney and Brenda Hale
My personal condolences to the Baker family. I knew both “Uncle George and Aunt Eunice” through my step dad Leroy Lumby. Such wonderful times… a much simpler time… both of them gave me great memories of my youth. Awesome loving people. May God grant the family peace knowing both of them touched so many people around the world.
To all of Eunice’s family.
I am so sorry for your loss. Eunice was a wonderful person as was Mr Baker. God has received another angel up in heaven.
She was loved by all that knew her. I remember her smiling face and her little laugh, her voice and how she was so friendly to everone.
We will miss her deeply.

Thinking of you I really loved your mom she was a very sweet and kind lady never a cross word that I ever heard from her but always a smile and a song of joy always a hug and always so willing to listen to stories.
