Elizabeth Baker

Elizabeth Helen Baker was born in Tempe, AZ, and died at age 94 in Encinitas, CA, after a long battle with Alzheimer’s. She was beautiful and charming in her youth and lived a full, active life. Her short first marriage produced her only son, Dennis. After a second short marriage, she raised Dennis for years at a time especially challenging for a single, working mother. Happily, she met and married her beloved Sharon and they worked together until retiring early to travel the country in a motor home for 15 years, before settling down again in San Marcos, CA. Sadly, Sharon passed away in 2013 and we hope that our loss is his gain as Elizabeth leaves behind her son Dennis (Karin), stepsons Scott and Ron and their families, brother Robert (Jeanette), 2 grandchildren Kimberly and Michael, step grandchildren Allison and Christopher, 3 great grandchildren and 3 step grandchildren, and many others in her extended family. Elizabeth worked at various companies in office administration, loved music, traveling, and was a voracious reader her entire life. She was valued for many things but will be remembered most for her unconditional love of family, her love of animals, and her indomitable, independent spirit. No services are planned at this time.
