We have lost another freeper, my friend, P7M13
me | 10-21-02 | WhyisaTexasgirlinPA

I learned today that my friend, P7M13, Len Baker of Denver, Colorado, died last Thursday in an automobile accident.

He was an amazing man - his profile page was simple, stating:

Texas Aggie, Class of 1976, Graduated 4 years late, Ag Ed Major, Rode the horse, Wore the boots

He was a devout Christian, worked countless hours in his Church, a devoted father and a good friend.

He reminded me constantly to see things from the point of view of others, and I will miss him more than I can express.

Spurs up, Cowgirl!

Your cowboy's at the Home Corral. He wants us to keep ridin' in his direction.

You mourn as much as you love.

From a Longhorn/Cougar to an Aggie, Texans both:

Rest in Peace, you had to be a fine gentleman judging by the friends you left behind.

"Rode the horse, Wore the boots" For a Texas gentleman, that's about as good as epitaphs get. I'm so very sorry, Texas Girl. My heart goes out to you and his family in this time of loss. May God wrap him in His loving arms in the Place where there is no pain and no sorrow.

I couldn't say it any better than COB so let me repeat it. I'll grieve and pray with you. We certainly need more of these men here now.

Prayers for all of the family. God will welcome him home.
