Lyle BAKER Obituary

Age 82 of Roseville, was surrounded by family as he peacefully passed away on March 29th. He was preceded in death by daughter Stephanie and is survived by wife Margie of nearly sixty years; daughters Stacy Baker and Jennifer Winters (Jeffrey). He will be remembered by all, for his bad jokes, intentional mispronunciations, and bizarre sense of humor. WE KNEW HIM AS: "Ike" or "Daddio" or Dad; A brother who kept in frequent touch with those brothers he loved; A problem solver for his girls; An awesome "Papa"; A great source of useless trivia; A sometimes Bass player; A zealous Bridge player; An enthusiastic traveler with Margie and Joann and Dick Heiser; Lary Johnson's longtime lunch partner and friend; Margie's husband, who every day told her, "I've always loved you". He will be greatly missed and we will cherish our memories. A Celebration of Lyle's life will be held at a later date.

I was a classmate of Lyles at NDSU back in the 60's. We were in the ATO Fraternity together, along with hi brother. Much fun those days were; I loved Lyle's sense of obligation to one another as we lived and worked together as a fraternity of 50 brothers. I knew he would be a great family man.

Lyle was one of my favorite friends at NDSU. Several of us sang in Dr. Godwin's choir and reunited several years ago to honor Dr. Godwin. Lyle was talented, a sharp guy, fun to be around and had tons of friends. Blessings to his family and loved ones.

Such a sweet picture of Lyle! He will be so missed.... I have so many memories of him - a lifelong family friend who meant so much to our family. My images of him will always include his crooked smile, that knowing yet sly glance, and the perpetual twinkle in his eye.... Our thoughts are with all you Bakers today ~ and always. Hugs to you!!
