Special Agent Baum:
It is so sad that the names of John Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson are so known. It is your name Special Agent Baum that should be known. You are a hero and a man to be looked up to. May you rest in peace and thank you and your family for the ultimate sacrifice. WE are a better people today because you walked among us yesterday.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 78th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.
Rest In Peace.

EDITH AND MARGRET BAUM WERE MY BABY SISTERS WHEN I LIVE IN CHEVY CHASE, MD IN THE 1940'S. THEY TOLD ME THE STORY OF THEIR FATHER, WHICH I NEVER FORGOT.
