The Dr. Leslie M. Baker Memorial
Scholarship Fund was established to help students seeking a
doctorate in medicine. The fund was established by Dr. Steven
Gerke, and the family of the late Dr. Baker. During Dr. Gerke’s
college years, he had received financial aid anonymously. Dr.
Gerke learned a few years later that Dr. Baker was the
individual that had anonymously provided financial support for
his education. He also learned that Baker had helped untold
other Dearborn County
students. The families of Dr. Gerke and Dr. Baker were all so
moved by Dr. Baker’s philanthropy that they started the memorial
scholarship fund.
