Obituary of Joan Carol Baker

HOPE JOAN CAROL BAKER, 81 of Hope, passed peacefully with family nearby at home on January 26, 2018 9:15 a.m. from a long-term sickness. She will be missed by many family and friends as a Jehovah’s Witness and had the hope of a resurrection to earth in a Paradise. She found hope in the Bible, and these are some Scriptures she enjoyed and gave her hope. I Corinthians 15:12, 13 and Revelation 21:4 gave her hope and peace of mind as it does for us. Please take time to look these Scriptures up and gain hope also. Mom worked as a secretary, waitress, had a day-care business, cleaning business, wedding flower arranger and also a wife and mother.
