Everyone looked forward to his famous pizzelles, press cookies and sweet bread during the holidays. His grandchildren were known to put in their dessert requests early so they had some to take home as well! He was a devoted Catholic who enjoyed attending weekly Mass and church festivals. Larry will be greatly missed by many, especially his sense of humor, that kept everyone laughing and joyous. In lieu of flowers, the family of Larry Baker requests donations be made in Larry's memory to Annunciation Catholic Church
