He will be missed by his grandfather Robert Gene Baker and the large clan of aunts, uncles and cousins.
Spencer's friends were everything to him. His hugs, silly banter and quirky smile will remain in all of our hearts. Most of Spencer's life was filled with fun and adventure. He traveled to many far away places and was happiest playing games and sports with his friends. Spencer had a passionate affection for animals who in turn gravitated to him before all others. Handsome, sensitive and funny Spencer will be remembered with love and tenderness. Spencer's beautiful life was cut way too short. Be at Peace. Your painful struggle is finally over.
There will be a celebration of Spencer's life on Saturday May 14, 2016 at The Episcopal Church of St. Mary the Virgin, 2325 Union Street, San Francisco at 2:00 PM.

Im sitting on a bench in Alta Plaza dedicated in Spencers honor and decided to google who this young man was. I didnt know him but felt a heavy presence when I sat here. Sending love and light to the Baker family. May your hearts forever hold onto the beautiful memories.

Spencer, I remember when the Giants won the world series in 2010, afterwards we drove around in my car screaming out the window and just having a blast taking in the moment. Love you and miss you my brother.
