Although I didn’t know you, you have touched my life.
Name at birth: David Newton Baer Date of birth: 9/3/63 Place of birth: USA Date of death: 7/10/94 Place of death: Ridgecrest, California, USA Place of burial: Ridgecrest, California, USA
In David’s memory, the following poem by Dylan Thomas:
And Death Shall Have No Dominion
And death shall have no dominion
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane.
Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;
Though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion.
And death shall have no dominion.
Under the windings of the sea
They lying long shall not die windily;
Twisting on racks when sinews give way,
Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break;
Faith in their hands shall snap in two,
And the unicorn evils run them through;
Split all ends up they shan’t crack;
And death shall have no dominion.
And death shall have no dominion.
No more may gulls cry at their ears
Or waves break loud on the seashores;
Where blew a flower may a flower no more
Lift its head to the blows of the rain;
Though they be mad and dead as nails,
Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
And death shall have no dominion.

Hello Family and Friends of Joseph Batton,
It is very ironic that I stumbled upon this message about Joseph. I was looking up my last name to see if there were any listings. I was looking because I was feeling very down and thought I would see if there were family members out there that I didn’t know. I am so sorry to hear about Joseph Batton and his untimely passing. It sounds as if he was a very special person to many. My great grandfather’s name was Joseph Batton and I was wondering if we have any family ties in our background. Please e-mail me back if you so choose. If not I understand and still send my warmest heartfelt caring about your loss. Dr. Denise Batton

Linda-I can barely see what I am typing through my tears. What a wonderful friend you are and were to Joseph. I’m dealing with my own pain of losing my Mother, but thankfully I had her for 69 years. Your friendship ended far to soon. I am truly touched by all you’ve done. Please know that you were thought of today, fondly.

Dear Linda:
My mother has recently purchased a computer. She’s been compulsive ever since she has discovered all the new programs it has given her. I caught her crying today when I came home from working. She read your web site to Joe. I myself was touched. I had a friend of mine die of drugs. And actually he was the last person we thought would die of anything. He was very loving, very happy go lucky. We weren’t aware he took any drugs. For him the first time was the last. I am sorry to hear about your dear friend. He sounded like a wonderful person. In fact, I felt that he was, by all the effort and compassion you have shown through your web site. It sounds like you yourself are a wonderful person. My mother and I both agree that this is a wonderful way to help the grieving process when someone you love dies. And a way to reach out to someone who thinks about committing suicide, or using drugs, or helping someone who dies of a disease, or dies of accidental deaths. We thank you personally for loving someone so much and caring about helping others through your painful experience. I am sure god feels the same way, as well as Joe.
Sincerely,
Sharon (52) and Rebecca (21)

When Someone you love becomes a memory, The Memory becomes a treasure.
Joe, my friend, no longer here.
No longer suffering, no longer in fear.
Did I ever tell you, you saved me?
gave me your friendship so freely.
Can’t repay that debt to you,
owe you so much, what can I do?
Too soon gone, but I won’t cry.
I’ll reminisce as days go by,
your laugh, your smile, your quirky ways.
These memories brighten the harder days.
Questions surface but I push them back.
You had your reasons for your final act.
I’s only fitting that a man who embraced life wholeheartedly
should have a place in the World Wide Cemetery. We love and miss
you our friend.
Linda Mason has created a site in honor of Joe’s memory.

Well Dad, it’s me again. I am sure you and Mom had quite a reunion on 11/10. Although I miss her dearly I am sure she is with you in a better place now. I dream of you two often. Once in a while I can smell your Old Spice and I can’t smell the scent of a fireplace burning wood that doesn’t bring back good memories. I am so thankful you were the parents that you were. At least Martha and I have great memories of fun and the love we all shared. God Bless You Both and May Peace Be With You. I love you forever.

Hi Dad, Mom seems to be really happy at Riverside. It’s a decision that was so hard to make. I miss her and hearing her fuss at me. I miss you too Dad. I miss our talks and walks thru the woods. I thank you for the drop of water on my windshield while I was driving thru Fazolis. I pray that you are at peace and heaven is all that and a bag of chips. I think of you so much, especiall when I am with mom. She has your picture on her wall. It is right below Laurens, and you can tell she’s ours because of her smile and red hair. Gotta get to work.

My dearest Dad – It’s almost time for Fathers Day this year. Peggy and I have a date with you at the beach on Sunday. Be prepared to catch all of the shells we pitch to you.

24 May, 1999
I really don’t know how you did it all these years. Please help me bite my tongue and learn to walk away when mom is giving me a hard time.

Took the truck out for a spin to Lowe’s last night. Mom and I jumped all the way. It make me feel closer to you to be in the truck. Just know you’re there with me. Sorry about hitting the tree, just a minor thing. Mom thought it was really funny. We talked about you while on the way to Lowe’s. I’m doing my best, dad. You took such good care of her. I’m really trying. Miss you and love you 4ever. Your daughter, Martha Ann

Well, we are doing the best that we know how. Sometimes I get so angry that you are not here and I take it out on others. I know you would be saddened to see this happen. I am trying to work on it. It’s just that I miss you so very much. Lauren talks about you a lot. She certainly loved you a lot, as do so many others… I miss YOU. Peggy

Dad,
Please help us look after Mom. I am so worried about her. I know you want us to care for her but I am not sure we can provide the type of care she needs.

Gotta go “feed up”.

Well Dad, Hows it going? Things here sure have been better. I continue to miss you so much. I can’t tell you how many times I have called your number… and then had to hang up when I realized that no one is there to answer. It just doesn’t seem real. And in my heart it isn’t because you will ALWAYS be there. I thank you so much for your time you gave me throughout my life. I am a better person for it. Peggy
07 May, 1999
Dad,
Wish you were here. I miss you so bad. Sure could use someone to talk to the way we used to 😉

We will always love you and miss you greatly. You continue to be the wind beneath our wings…
Our wonderful father was taken home to heaven January 9, 1999. We will miss him and think of him daily. This poem is a tribute to this wonderful man we love.
God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle’s flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew his masterpiece was complete,
and he was known as Our Dad.

In loving memory of our Mother. My you be at rest and without pain.
I visited the cemetery
As I often sometimes do
I gazed upon the headstone
and said a prayer or two.
I placed a wreath upon her grave
Where my moms body lay
I shed my tears and spoke of love
Then slowly walked away
I don’t kmow why, but I turned back
And I saw an awesome sight
through the majestic tree above her grave
I saw a radiant light
So struck by it’s beauty
And the bending of shadowed boughs
My heart was filled with joy
And my spirit was aroused.
It’s as if mom was giving me a message
And suddenly I realized
Her home is still within my heart
And no one ever really dies
There come a time one must leave this earth
But they are never far away
And they hear our every thought and word
When we go to them to pray.
My thought began to turn to times long ago
As I smiled and moved forward
Still feeling the lights glow
I felt the light go with me
Mom had sent me a message
On this wonderful day
Upon the radio was playing
As the day turned into night
Don’t worry, just be happy
and you know, She was right.
