Margo Baker (Adams)
2022-04-14
California won't be nearly as sunny, without the beautiful soul Margo Adams Baker.
My dearest auntie, Mom's sister Margo passed on Thursday evening.
She was truly amazing as an artist, a lover of animals (esp cats) a collector of antiques, a seamstress, a Homepathic Physician, a lay counselor, pastoral staff, and a highly sought-after caregiver. She loved the Lord with all her heart. She will be greatly missed.
Cancer accelerated her end of life to just a few months. We got to say goodbye, but man... It does hurt.

1955-2019
From John's funeral service program:
"There are no problems, only solutions".
From being humble beginnings, he blazed his own path--like playing ice hockey in Oklahoma. John became professionally successful by getting into software sales when computers were barely smaller than basements.
