BAKER, MICHAEL JAMES

Mike Baker, 60, of Sherwood, died unexpectedly on Tuesday, February 2, 2010. Mike was born on August 11, 1949, in Milwaukee to the late James and Estella (Fitzpatrick) Baker. He proudly served his country in the U. S. Army during the war in Vietnam. Mike continued to serve his country as a technician with the VA Zablocki Medical Center in Milwaukee for over 25 years. He was a volunteer for Meals on Wheels and Rebuilding Together Fox Valley. Mike was always ready to lend a hand to anyone that needed it.

Mike loved his eleven beautiful grandchildren: Jozie and Jocelynn Slade; Monica, Paul and Abby Neuok; Merissa, Cassandra, Matthew, Luke, Hailey and Bella Lemerond—and they loved their grandpa dearly. He was preceded in death by his son, Daniel; and two brothers, Patrick and Dennis Baker.
