James Baker Obituary
James was a man who cherished his family deeply and found joy in the great outdoors. He had a passion for hunting and fishing, pursuits that brought him peace and fulfillment. His skill and dedication to running heavy equipment were also a source of pride throughout his life.
He is lovingly remembered by his long time girlfriend Alice Bergeron as well as his children: Brandy Baker, James (Tanya) Baker III, Adam (Sydney Jones) Baker and Candy Baker. James was a proud grandfather to Kaitlyn, Robert, Nathan, Kacie, Mickenzie, Chase, Ari, Zana, Kendall, Syriss, Madison and Dario. He is also survived by his siblings: Tally (Bob) Green, Matt (Linda) Baker, Jeff Baker, Greg (Phyllis) Baker, Ernie (Betty) Baker, Joann Snoderly (Doug Leary), and Joyce (Dan) Seville. In addition to these close family members, James leaves behind many more relatives who will hold his memory close to their hearts.
James's love for family and nature will continue to inspire those who knew him. May his memory bring comfort to all who mourn his passing.
At this time the family plans on holding a celebration of life at a later time.
