FRIDAY - Jan 23, 2009

Dick "Pops" Baker " Line Shack Chili"

Dick Baker 89, of the Baker Boys, long time ICS Chili Cook and father of Carl Baker, who passed away one week ago today, passed away Thursday night at approx. 10:15 pm in Las Vegas. He was at the Spring Valley Hospital in Las Vegas.

Carl and Dick were "The Line Shack Chili Team", and cooked chili all over the west. They had a Great Showmanship Team and were Great cooks. They have won many cookoffs and cooked in the World's Cookoff 7 times. More information to follow. It sounds like the family is going to make arrangements to have a memorial for both of them at the same time. They were inseparable.

Dick's wife Barbara, daughter Claudia and Carl's wife Dona will need your prayers and support. I will get some address's and phone numbers and post them soon.

Looks like 2009 is starting out like 2008.

Too many good friends and family passing away, lets stop it now!
