Paul Baker Laid to Rest

Check out Jimmy Lynn’s wonderful blog post regarding the services for Paul F. Baker this weekend. It was an honor to attend and to spend quality time with Paul’s family and so many great friends.

Paul will be missed. I couldn’t take my eyes off of the photo of Paul near the font of the church alter. He seemed to be staring at me with that fun gleam in his eye.

Jimmy - Let us know when you set up the scholarship fund. Lynn and I are in and will help. I promise to work with you and others and Steve and Jean Case to establish a real AOL reunion. We need to all meet and do it under much more joyous circumstances. RIP Paul.

RIP Paul Baker

A long term close friend and former AOL associate passed away in early January. All of us that were close to Paul Baker are still reeling from the news.

I just saw Paul in late November at a Capitals game. He looked and sounded great. He made me smile and he made my day. He laughed and joked with my son, daughter and other friends in the owner’s box. He was “just Paul being Paul.”

His loss is a great blow to many of us. He was a great and loyal friend. He was a terrific executive and lawyer. He was a heck of a great guy! He is missed. Go to Facebook and look up RIP PAUL BAKER to see some wonderful photos of Paul at his best.
