Message in a Bottle Found 10 Years Later

From WLTX News19: A Wisconsin man has received an unexpected message from a deceased friend -- in a bottle floating in a lake.

Steve Lieder was chatting with friends near White Lake when he looked down and saw a bottle. They broke it open and found a note. Lieder was amazed to find it was written eleven years ago by one of his closest friends, who died last year.

Joshua Baker was ten years old when he wrote the message for a school project, stuck it in a bottle and tossed it in the lake.

The note reads: 'My name is Josh Baker. I am 10. If you find this, put it on the news. The date is 4/16/95.'

Baker died last year in a traffic accident in California. His mother says he had recently returned home after serving in the Marines in the Middle East. She plans to display the note in her home."
