Nadia Baxter Obituary

NADIA STEPHANIE BAXTER Nadia Stephanie Baxter, 22, passed away on Monday, May 25. She was born to Karin Baxter King and Michael Baxter on September 28, 1992 in Santa Fe, NM. Nadia graduated from La Cueva High School in 2011, where she was the captain of the Cross Country team her junior and senior years. She also competed at the local and state level outside of school in National Reigning Horse Association competitions. After high school, Nadia went on to study biochemistry at the University of New Mexico as a pre-med student, volunteering at the UNM hospital pediatric emergency room. Vivacious and always inviting adventure, Nadia was happiest when exploring her dreams, spending time with family and friends, and skydiving. Her overriding motivation in life was to make a contribution and to help others, specifically by becoming a pediatric neurosurgeon. Nadia is survived by her mother, her father, her step-father, Kevin, her brother, Chris, her sister-in-law, Georgia, her grandparents, Hartmut and Karin Krieger, her uncle, Boris, and her aunt, Lulu, among countless other family members and friends. Taken too soon from this world, in the hearts of her family and those who knew her, her pursuit of good will never cease to inspire. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that a donation be made to UNM Hospital in her name. A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 30 at McGee Memorial Chapel at 1320 Luisa St., Santa Fe, NM, 87505. The family requests that all guests wear bright colors in honor of Nadia's wishes that her life be a cause for celebration.

My deepest and sincerest condolences go out to Nadia's family, friends and loved ones.. Nadia was full of life and love with an insatiable appetite for adventure. Her enthusiasm was contagious and she loved life. Even though I only knew her for a short while years ago, she made an impact which I'll never forget. This is just shocking to hear of her passing at such a young age. May her soul rest in peace and may her family find comfort knowing she'll be watching over them from above.

Karin, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. When I think about Nadia, I think of the little girl about 6 who had lunch with us one day downtown. We were outside on the patio enjoying the sunshine and she was a very happy girl who made me smile. She told me very confidently that although her earrings weren't real, one day she would have diamond ones like a princess.
