My sincere condolences to the family and loved ones of Shirley Baker. Sending prayers and comfort. 🕊️

I am going to miss you tremendously Aunt Shirley! I’m going to miss our conversations.  I’m going to miss your advice and the love you have shown.  You have played a huge role in all of our lives.  I’m happy that you got a chance to live 90 years! That’s a major accomplishment.  I will see you soon ❤️

I remember one time Jimmy was taking Tiny and a few other cousins out to a teen club or something and you refused to let me go.  No matter how much I whined and cried you refused.  You said “I ain’t about get Alvin mad at me! I’m not letting YOU out of my sight!”  
I was mad 😂😂
Love you Auntie 🩷

Rip to my god mommy i love you forever i’m sorry this hap to you see you soon Pretty lady 😔💔

My Aunt Shirley! I don't know where to begin.  I remember  as I grew up and started coming around more my Auntie and I developed a strong relationship.  We would sit on the phone day end and day out talking about everything and every body. If I missed her call I had to call her back because she loved a good "Gossip' lmbo . Auntie would talk about me to you ,and you to me, but guess what that was who she was it was harmless. I loved it she made me laugh, I made her laugh, and God knows leaving her presence, rather it was on the phone, or in person you always felt loved. I struggled my whole life dealing with the Mitchell's, but my Auntie told me how to cope with situations,and it allowed me to let go and let God. My Auntie knew that I go to church every Sunday, and she told me she couldn't believe that and I asked her why ( she said because im a lesbian) We both busted out laughing because I knew that's just who she was a non filtered  Aunt Shirley! On Monday, the day before new years eve,I was so glad God allowed me to be a part of her day. I talked with her ,feed her,and prayed over her, I was able to share how important Auntie was to me ,and my dad, her brother,Micheal we so love you and are so grateful that God chose you to gain your wings. I know its hard for us on earth because we are of the flesh, but Auntie Im so grateful to have known you to love on you for you to love on me and instill so much wisdom and knowledge.  You said God is the only way and I will continue to keep my eyes on him.Until we meet  again! I miss you and I love you always and I will continue to take care of your brother, Michael ,my dad. We love you rest in the bosom of your father!!!! Love ❤️ Your Niece Kay  Mitchell

There are truly no words that can express what you mean to me. From you taking Deneen & I to the county fair every year, making caramel apples with us and just always being there for us.  You’d go to war for us. At a time when everyone was against us YOU stood up for us and nobody could say anything about us to you or they’d catch HELL. Thank you so much for always being there for us and my son. I love you dearly and will miss you so much. Until we meet again Love always & forever. Bird

You will always be an important person in my life I was in a dark place in my life and you guided me through that storm you was always honest with me and you showed me nothing but love, over time we moved apart but you was always in my heart when I hear your name which was Grandma or mama it always fill my heart because of the talks we had the outings the being there for me when I was going through something you never judge and gave your opinion only if asked. The advice you gave me has made me the person I am today because of you I don't take no mess from anyone you showed me how to stand on my two feet and you opened my eyes to a lot of things. I'm truly blessed to have you in my life and I'm grateful for what you have taught me. I will miss you so much but I also know God felt it was time to go to your heavenly home. You will never be forgotten. I love you aunt Shirley. I'll see you later because this is not good bye. Rest in paradise my beautiful queen 👑.

I don’t even know where to begin so many wonderful memories with you. I will always remember are little talks when I was at your house or when you were at your brother house. One memory I remember is when Granddad came to pick me up to take me to his house and he said I have to make a stop and I said no drop me off first when I knew he was going to visit you. Long story short 20 hours later we were still at your house 🤦🏽‍♀️ but what I would do now to see you both again. Rest well Aunt Shirley love ❤️ you . Family I love you all .

I GONE MISS YO FACE YO CALL EVERYTHING U WAS SPECIAL TO ME AND ALL OF US NOT GONNA NEVER FORGET YOU. I GOT YOU MY HEART GRANDMA LOVE YOU 🖤

My deepest Condolences and Prayers are with my daughter Jasmin and the other family members of Mrs. Shirley Baker God Bless you all. Mrs. Baker was a very sweet and special lady she will definitely be missed.
