Roy Lee Baker

Roy grew up in Bakersfield and graduated from West High School. After high school, Roy worked various jobs as a security guard, oil field worker, and construction. On August 30th, 2008, Roy married the love of his life, Debra (Sughrue) Baker. They spent 17 years happily married.

Roy was an avid outdoorsman. He loved fishing (rod and reel), hunting, and camping. Though, if Roy had a choice, he would always choose to spend time with his wife. Together they loved to go to concerts (country music), cook together and spend time in one another’s presence. Roy was known for being a grill master. He could cook the perfect pink-rare Ribeye that had everyone’s mouth watering. Roy was outgoing and always making friends with anyone he met. Roy was a very hard-working man, and a devout Baptist. He was a member of the Country Gospel Cowboy Church.

Roy is survived in life by his wife, Debra Baker, brothers; Buddy Baker, and Wayne Boykin; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Roy is preceded in death by his parents, George and Opal Baker; sisters; Charlotte Cooke, and Susan Graves.
