Lee Baron Obituary

It is with profound sadness we announce the tragic loss of Lee Davis Baron, age 21, on May 23. As generous in life as in death, Lee gave the gift of life to 6 people who now carry his love and spirit in his donated vital organs. A physical body not long for this world but an old soul, leaving behind his legacy of love and gentleness indelibly etched in our hearts. Loved by so many, but none greater than his parents Paul & Trinka Baron, his fiance Maria Reyna, and numerous adoring family members and friends. To celebrate his life and love for gatherings of people, a memorial will be held on Sunday May 30th, 2:00 pm, at the Glenhaven Lakes Club, 2997 Glenhaven Drive, Sedro Woolley, WA, 98284. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Lee Davis Baron Memorial Fund, at any Whatcom Educational Credit Union in Bellingham.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Trink, I heard about Lee's passing from my brother, Bruce, who had just spoken with my brother, Bryan. I am heartsick to hear that the vibrant young man you raised so carefully with help from my sister, Beverly, lost his life at such a young age. I so wish I could have been Beverly to be there to help you through this horrible tragedy. Sincerely, Barbara Buchanan Horton

We enjoyed Lee visiting so often over years as he grew up with our son Travis. He was a good kid. I can make no sense of this loss. I can only offer my profound sympathy to the family. I am deeply sorry for your loss.
