Danny Joe Baker, born January 16, 1959, passed away unexpectedly on April 17, 2026.

Danny was known for his sense of humor and his goofy personality, always able to make people laugh and feel at ease. He was also a stubborn man, strong in his ways, which was part of what made him who he was.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Edgar and Nina Baker, as well as all of his siblings.

Danny is survived by his children, Diane Baker, Robert Abbott, Danny Baker, and Alyssa Baker, along with many other family members and friends who will miss him deeply.

Danny will be remembered for his humor, his strength, and the presence he brought to those around him. He will be deeply missed.
