I was born, I lived and evidently I died. I guess after all these years God finally figured out where I was and needed a little help upstairs. I was the son of Dominic and Mary Baudo. Born and bred in St. Louis and proud of my Italian Heritage. My wife Margaret is still around and probably mad because I didn't make 55 years of marriage. My children Julia and Jeff along with their spouses and grandchildren as well as great grandchildren were a joy in my life. I will be missed by my family as well as my friends, especially those at the various pubs or as Marge told people the "office". Thank you everyone for all you did for me and with me. I was lucky enough to have so many memories and trips with my family. In lieu of flowers, because I can't smell anyway, please donate to the American Heart Association. You may help someone in the future who has a heart condition. Don't cry because I am gone, instead have a toast to me and be happy you knew me. Well…..maybe you can cry a little bit because after all, I died.
