RONNIE BAKER would like to thank

I can't begin to give thanks and praise enough to the "Big Man" upstairs for all the blessings and joys in my life. I thank God for loaning me this voice and giving me this talent while I'm on this earth. I thank the Lord for giving me the gift to express myself through music. Believe in him and ALL things are possible!

Special thanks to "Mama Jean" Baker for constantly pushing and teaching me to develop my talent from such an early age. You taught and encouraged me with your unconditional love all of my life to never give up on my music. I owe where I am today, to you. YOU were my biggest fan! Andy Griggs once told me, "your dream was your Mama's dream", and thanks to you, Mom, I'm now living my dream. Until I join you in Heaven, I miss you and love you, deeply. Mom, you would be so proud! This record is dedicated to the memory of you...
