Jack was born on May 4, 1961, to Jack Edward and Josephine Baker.
A true patriot, Jack dedicated his life to serving his country and supporting his fellow veterans throughout a remarkable 45-year career. He proudly served in the United States Air Force for 26 years, retiring with the rank of Master Sergeant. Following his military service, he continued his commitment to veterans for another 19 years as an Information Technology Supervisor at the Southern Arizona Veterans Affairs Healthcare System.
Jack is survived by his loving wife of 44 years, Kimberly Ann Baker; his two sons, Stephen Baker (wife Jessica) and Andrew Baker (wife Tiani); his grandchildren Jonathan, Jasec, Jaren, Jayte, Shoshana, Ronen, and Leander; and his sisters Donna Caldwell and Marsha Royster.
He was preceded in death by his parents and one sister.
Jack was deeply loved by his family, friends, and community. His integrity, devotion, and lifelong service to others touched countless lives. He will be remembered always-with gratitude, pride, and love. May he rest in peace
