Chris Baker Obituary

With heavy hearts we say goodbye to our beloved Chris. Born and raised in Victoria. Survived by his sisters Shannon (Bob), Karen (Dennis), uncle, aunts, nieces, and nephew. Partner Linda and her children Brent, Sabrina (Ryan). Linda would like to thank the family and many wonderful friends (llama group, & boat family) for their love and support. Special mentions to Chris Hall (Anita) and Brant Hoff (Sandra) for making our last boat days possible. Much emotional support from Bob (Pam), Tracey (Stephen), and our amazing health care workers. Chris was Walltec Systems, a General Contractor winning a Care Award in his long successful career. His passion was being on his boat. Trips to all the islands and Desolation Sound every summer. He wished for one more trip! Best known for the speed of Spartacus (Trevor who made it all possible). Much loved & forever missed, our Spartacus. Celebration of life at a later date.

I only recently learned of Chris's passing and was shocked and dismayed. I was out of the country when Chris passed away. Chris worked for me as a site superintendent in the late 80's in the Sunnymead subdivision in Cordova Bay. He was one of the best site super's I ever had and he had a passion for the work. It is not surprising that he excelled with his own company. My sincere condolences to his family.

We're sorry to hear of cousin Chris's passing. We didn't grow up in the same place but when we got together for holidays we always had so much fun. As adults, we even saw less of him but enjoyed hearing stories of his life. He was a good, generous person who lived his life to the fullest. We're proud to have known him. Hugs to Linda, Shannon and Karen and the rest of the family.
Love Andria and Phil

I am shocked and saddened to see this. I hadn't seen Chris in several years, but we first met in the late 80's when he worked for another general contractor then I was "his guy" when he started Walltec. Chris was always supportive and we did lots of business over the years. Quality guy in everything he did. You will be missed.

Chris was a client for over 20 years. I watched him evolve from a driven entrepreneur, manager, perfectionist, to a calmer, happier, let's get this job done right and help the next person with their project. Rest in peace Chris, all the people you worked with will miss you greatly, see you again one day.
