Robert Earl Baker
On Sunday June 5th, 2022, at the age of 61, Robert went to his heavenly home. His lifetime here with us was always and forever will be filled with the laughter and love that he gave to those he knew. He was a jokester, to know him was to love him, to laugh, and never live life in a dull moment. Robert worked for 40 years as a fire sprinkler installer. He was an avid Alabama football fan, loved taking rides in his boat, fishing, hunting, and listening to his favorite Swamp Pop music. Robert was a very stern man, but a teddy bear at heart, who would help anyone in need. He recently discovered a motto that he lived by, “ Life’s a journey it takes you to unexpected places, but love brings you home.”
He leaves behind his loving fiancée, Dee McCarter; children, Melissa Parfait (Jason), Walter Dillon Baker (Kallen Elizabeth Morrison); grandchildren, Kaylee Marie Parfait and Addison Claire Baker; sister, Jan Britt (Chip); niece, Kimberly Sampay; as well as numerous cousins, extended family, and friends.
Preceding Robert in death are his daughter, Tina Marie Baker; parents, Earl Baker, Winnie Hunt, and Janie Baker.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend the Celebration of Life Service for Mr. Robert on Monday June 13th, 2022, at Harry McKneely & Son Funeral Home in Ponchatoula, at 6:00 p.m. with visitation from 5:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
