Valeria Baker was born on December 17, 1958 in Buffalo, New York to Hampton and Rebecca Myles. Valeria grew up in Buffalo with 10 siblings. Valeria moved to live in Texas in 1986 where she was an IT professional which included the point of sale. Valeria loved to host and participate in family gatherings, dinner parties, sporting events, and any other reason to be with her family and friends. More than anything Valeria loved spending time with her family. She enjoyed making people laugh but Valeria was a true person to herself and to others. She was never one to sugar coat her feelings or thoughts. She called it as she saw it, but was the first person to lend a helping hand or give you the coat off of her back. Even through her illness, she did what she could to help her family and friends. She persevered where most could not. Valeria was a very loving and firm mother. She is survived by her son, Jimmie L. Baker Jr, her grandchildren Landon and Haylee Baker, her siblings: Larry Myles, Betty Bosley, Ernestine Nunn, Hampton Myles Jr., Walter Myles, Martha Lucas, Vernon Myles, Roosevelt Myles, Robert Myles, and Cynthia Tanksley, her aunt Leola Harrison, her past husband Jimmie L. Baker Sr., as well as by her numerous friends and family who loved her dearly. She will be missed greatly, but will never be forgotten. She was preceded in death by her parents Hampton and Rebecca Myles and Samantha Cothran.
