GRAHAM BAKER

GRAHAM BAKER Passed away peacefully at home with his family at his side on July 14th after a courageous battle with cancer at the age of 58. Loving husband of Pat, devoted father of Jacqueline, committed step-father of Jennifer Creed and her husband Dan, and Sean McNeely and his wife Patti. He is also survived by his brother Colin Baker and his wife Jennifer of Bristol, England, his aunt Muriel Cordery of London, England, his cousin David Cordery and his wife Leslie of Brighton, England and his cousin Neville Mullany of France. Graham will be fondly remembered by his brother-in-law Bob Boutilier and his wife Hilary, and his sister-in- law Barbara Carere and her husband Frank, and Mother-In-Law Margaret Boutilier as well as many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents Gordon and Anne Baker of England. Born in Egypt and educated in England, Graham came to Canada in 1969 to pursue the Canadian dream. Through tireless determination and entrepreneurial risk, Graham achieved his dreams and continued to set new goals. He married Patricia in 1978. They were not only best friends, but also business partners. He built aluminum bridging systems, residential developments and even took on the indomitable Cuban political system with creativeness and persistence. Graham will be greatly missed by his entire family and many friends. Donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be gratefully acknowledged by the family. Thank you to the Mount Sinai palliative care team for their support and compassion and special thanks to Dr. Russell Goldman. Funeral Service will be held on Thursday, July 17th at 2:00 P.M. at Timothy Eaton Memorial Church, 230 St. Clair Avenue West.
