Carol Roberts Baker, 77, left this earthly home on December 13, 2022 from Mesquite, Texas. She was born in Detroit, Michigan on January 8, 1945 to Jack Earl and Jean Lucille Roberts. As a young child, her and her family moved to Houston, Texas where she was raised in a house her Daddy built.

Carol had two beautiful children, she married the love of her life Randy Baker in 1983 and they had 22 wonderful years together before his passing.

She could not wait to meet God and go home to be with her family. She loved her children and grandchildren very much and loved to brag to her friends about all their accomplishments.
