Andrea Baker Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Combs, Parsons & Collins Funeral Home on Jan. 29, 2026.
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Andrea Baker, age 34, a beloved daughter, mother, sister, girlfriend, and friend whose life and spirit left a lasting mark on those who truly knew her.

Andrea was funny, endlessly positive, and deeply loving. She was a dreamer at heart, someone who believed in possibility, meaning, and hope, even when life made that difficult. To those who knew her well, Andrea was truly a ray of sunshine, bringing warmth, light, and genuine joy into the lives of the people around her. Those closest to her knew her laugh well, a laugh that was full, genuine and unforgettable once you heard it.

Andrea loved documenting her life through pictures, videos, and memories, capturing moments both big and small. She cherished music, creativity, and self-expression, and she had a natural artistic talent, especially in drawing. She loved adventures, making memories, and being surrounded by her family. She also loved glitter, something small but meaningful to her, because it reflected her belief in light, beauty, and finding sparkle even in ordinary moments.

Andrea loved her children deeply. Her love for them was unwavering, constant and pure, and they were always a part of who she was.

Andrea was incredibly strong. She faced many challenges in life and met them with resilience, courage, and determination. Again and again, she found a way to keep going, to grow, and to believe in something better. A quiet strength that defined her more than words ever could. She also had a heart for helping others. Andrea worked at Goodwill and was pursuing a path in peer support, driven by a genuine desire to uplift and encourage those around her. She cared deeply about people and wanted to make a difference, no matter how small.

Andrea is survived by her parents, Sheila Faye Baker and Benny Ray Baker; her siblings, Ashley Baker and Ariel Baker; her children, Austin Ray Baker, Joshua Ryan Lamb, Julian Thomas Reed, and Aalayah Miracle Ellis; her partner, Malcolm Ellis; and her husband, Joshua Lamb.

Funeral Services will be held at 1:00 PM Saturday, January 31, 2026, at the Combs, Parsons & Collins Funeral Home. Burial will follow in the Red Hill Cemetery at Panola, Kentucky.

Visitation will begin at 11:00 AM Saturday morning at the funeral home.

Andrea will be remembered for her strength, her creativity, her hopeful spirit, and the deep love she carried for her family. Though her time here was far too short, the impact she made will live on in the hearts of those who truly knew and loved her.
