✝️🌅 Happy Easter from Race Car Diner 🌅✝️

Today we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ…
a powerful reminder that hope is never lost, love never fails, and new beginnings are always possible.

We’re beyond grateful for our community, our customers, and the many blessings God has poured into this little diner we call family. ❤️

From our table to yours, we pray your day is filled with peace, joy, and time with the ones you love most.

He is Risen!

If you have a picture, a memory, or a moment you shared with Santa, please take a minute to post it below and use 🎅

Let’s flood this feed with love, laughter, and the joy he brought to so many lives. He meant so much to our community, and these memories will keep his spirit alive forever.

Please continue to pray for his wife and family during this difficult time. 🙏

Rest in peace, Santa… you will never be forgotten. ❤️

❤️ This one hurts… ❤️

Our community’s very own Santa… who brought so much joy, love, and light to the kids and families at Race Car Diner and the Astatula Community Center for so many years… has passed.
He was more than just Santa… he was a blessing, a warm smile, a comforting presence, and a true example of kindness and love. 🎅✨
May he rest in peace.
Please keep his wife and family in your prayers during this incredibly difficult time. 🙏

The Bible reminds us in Galatians 6:2 “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.”

Now it’s our turn to carry his family.

If you feel led, please consider donating to help lay him to rest the way he should be. And if you’re not able to give, sharing this post means just as much.

Let’s come together as a community and show his family the same love he gave all of us. ❤️

🙏 Every prayer, every share, every dollar makes a difference.
Thank you for lifting this family up in love and prayer.

In Loving Memory of Robert “Santa” Baird This morning, March 23rd,… Stephan Breton needs your support for In Memory of Robert 'Santa' Baird's Kindness
