Dear Kim & Jack, 
When I think of Twyilla, I always think of her sweet smile and lovely disposition.  Pat and I were out of town when she passed away and not aware that she was having more problems than her usual arthritis.  We always discussed that when we would see each other, as I have arthritis too. She mentioned that her shoulder was bothering her, but I had no idea that it was anything serious.  Twilla, in spite of her health problems, was always upbeat and vivacious!  She will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her.  She was a very special lady! Heaven will love her smile!

Even though I have not been apart of the family in a very long time. I still remember how wonderful a woman Twillia was. My heart goes out to you. She will be missed.

Twila was a special person who was part of our family for a short time but we will always remember her. She had a special place in our hearts. Please except our sincere condolences.

I always admired Twillia, when I met her she was sweet loving and welcoming,life had thrown a lot of hardship her way and she proved to me that a person can be strong and survive anything that life throws at you.  Nothing that happened in her lifetime made her bitter, she remained a sweet loving person and will be sadly missed.

My deepest condolences go out to all of Twillias family. 

God Bless,
Anne Scrivner

Our prayers are with you and your family at this time.  Knowing that she no longer suffers must bring you comfort and peace.

My deepest sympathy on your loss.  Twillia was a very special woman and we will miss her dearly.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Gladys, Matt and their children and all who knew and loved Twilla.

I became apart of the Baker family almost 5 years ago. I am a truley blessed person for getting to know you Twillia. You had a way about you that could light up any room. I hope to be as great of a mom to my kids as you were to yours.  I will miss you so very much. I know you are in a better place, and I know one day I'll see you again. Love you so much.

Twillia, I thank you for all the good memories and great times we shared. 23 years of sharing and caring. Even after we went our seperate ways we remained friends and even shared a few more times of which we had some laughs and even some tears. There will always be a special place in my heart for you and I know you are in a better place now. No hurting, no pain. You will be missed. I will always be thankful for the times we spent together.

I work with Twillia for 13 yrs at Macy's. She was a wonderful, amazing, and sweet woman. I will miss her dearly.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Baker family. Twillia was always kind and loving to all she met and made everyone feel at home whenever she was around. God's Blessings to the Baker Family.

I came into this family two years ago and Twillia was one of the most welcoming of the family. I remember last Christmas while taking pictures they wanted all of the grand children in a picture with me maw and she included me as one of her own grand children, and it made me feel special. She was always so sweet and happy especially when John and I would surprise her at work. She always brought big smiles, hugs, and kisses. Love and Miss you always . I'll always see you as my Me maw.

where to begain.... 25 years ago when i was pbrought into the family you welcomed me with open arms. you were never judgemental,always loving,caring and concerned with all of us. i could have never asked for a better mother in law. i will miss you. you will always be in my heart.  
           love always

Thank you, Aunt Twillia, for being an example to follow with my spiritual development.  I'll never forget the many times you took me to Garth Road Baptist Church on Sunday mornings where eternal seeds of faith were planted forever and I thank God that I had the opportunity to tell you so before you went home to be with our Lord and Savior.  Well done, His good and faithful servant!

My thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends at this time and please know that treasured memories of you will dwell in our hearts forever.

Twillia, was a beautiful woman. She was an incredibly strong, loving, and giving person.  Twillia's positive and caring spirit will be greatly missed by everyone that had the hornor to have known her.
  
Our Prayers go out to the families..

My sweet beautiful  aunt I will miss her terribly my deepest sympathy to all the family

Twilla will be deeply missed by all. She was like a second Mom to me and her presence in my life will never be forgotten. 
Twilla was one of the strongest woman that I've ever met, she proved that point by raising her wonderful family under, at times, difficult situations. She had ""no"" problems dealing with adversity.
Thanks Twilla for for all your loving memories and may GOD bless you because your definitely in a better place.

I work at macy's and I just wanted to say  Ms Twillia will be missed.
We have her family in our prayers...

Twillia was a friend & neighbor from Evergreen Fairways. We adored her and kept in touch after she moved with cards and by visiting her at Macy's (of course). Things I remember about Twillia are that Twillia enjoyed gardening and had quite the green thumb, she loved her dog(s) and made The Best Potatoe Salad ever. She was a hard worker and cared for her long time work family. However, there was nothing that made Twillia light up like talking about her children and grandchildren - she loved you all dearly. Our deepest sympathies to you all. We will miss her much!

This is written with deep heartfelt condolences to the whole Baker family.  Twillia was a truly sweet, kind person who raised a wonderful and spirited family.  Andy, you are like a brother to me.  You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

David, Carol, and family, We are saddened to hear of your mother's passing.  Please know that you are all in our prayers.  May God give you the strength and comfort during these difficult days.

Our deepest sympathy and prayer to all as you go forward.  God is great and will provide each of you with his blessings.

My dear sweet Aunt Twilla, you will be missed sorely. You now rest amoungst the family as they greet you in heaven. Kiss mom and dad for us and all those we miss so much. We will see you all in time. Our hearts ache for you and understand your loss as we now all our parents are now together in heaven.

Jack,Andy,Roy,Gladys,David,Our hearts go out to you and your families.Your Mom was a wonderful Lady,Our family lost a very special Angel on August 1,2010,God received a very special Angel on August 1,2010.We love you all Jack&Nina, Deon, Caleb, and Kris

Twillia, you will be truely missed. The Mueller family enjoyed your positive support, wonderful smile and the joyous times that we were blessed to spend with you. To the Family, our hearts and prayers go out to all of you. You were very blessed to have such a wonderful Matriarch leading your family!

I am sorry for your loss.  I always enjoyed spending time with Twillia at your family gatherings.  My favorite memory is when she accompanied me to the 5 act opera, ""Parsifal"" by Wagner and we both agreed after 3 acts, that would be enough for her first opera exposure.  My heart goes out to all of you during this difficult time.

Gladys, I have not seen you or your mother in many years but I remember her happy and fun loving spirit. May God be with you and your family.

I had the honor of knowing Twillia for several years. She and I worked together at Macy's. She was the sweetest woman I have ever known. She always talked about her kids and grandkids. I had no idea that she had cancer and I am completely devastated to hear of her passing. I wish I could have said goodbye. Heaven truly has another ANGEL. I love you Twillia and you will be missed always. My thoughts and prayers will be with all of her friends and family during this difficult time. God Bless.

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Ms. Twilla.  I had the honor of working with her at Macy's and I can honestly say I never met a kinder lady.  She always had nice things to say about everyone, never once did I hear her ever say anything negative about anyone or anything.  I know she is greatly missed at Macy's and she will always be missed by her family.  From my family to yours, our prayers are with you all.

God bless you,

Barbara McCain

memaw was the sweetest most caring person i ever got a chance to meet much less grow up around and spend the 23 years of my life with. she will be greatly missed by many. love you memaw

I was one of many who had the priviledge of working with Twilla and got to know her pretty well. She was one of the kindest people I have ever known. She never had anything bad to say about anyone and what I admired most was her ability to be strong in the wake of turmoil. She was always there, no matter how ill or tired she was. Her work ethic was as high as I have ever seen. I know that you will always miss her, but I also know that she passed that strength down to her children and grandchildren. My prayers are with you all. Linda Montgomery
