Neil Tribble lit a candle in memory of Ken Baxter
Mr. Baxter was my school counselor, and I always loved him. Of course with Mrs. Baxter being my favorite teacher. He was always so kind, and really funny! I would have loved to be at the funeral if I could have been.
I’ll always remember him walking into my classroom during my conference time and asking if I was roasting a pig in there because I was always cold and heater was running💙
`Rosemary and family, Although I didn't know Ken very well, I never heard anything but good about him! Sending virtual hugs and prayers for all of you, Anita
Ken was always quick with a story or great advice. So much joy was brought to a room when he was there. I loved working with him at MHS. He had a true heart for what was fair and the best for our students .
Most of all I loved seeing him have pride and love for Rosemary and all of the kids. He was never afraid to praise them or publicly show his love for his family and his faith.
Fly high my friend.
I loved to hear Ken stories and will miss seeing him about town. I will never forget him coming to see me within hrs after my son David had died, he was such a comfort. Blessings to all of the family
