BAKER, Melissa Diane

Melissa Diane Baker, 30, of Peoria passed away March 26, 2004. 

Melissa was born in Chicago, IL, moved to Arizona with her parents in 1983 and graduated from Apollo High School in 1991. 

She is survived by her parents William & Lois (Antiporek) Baker, aunts, uncles, many cousins and her beloved companions Chipper, Booger and Tizzy. 

Melissa loved people and had a magnetic personality, winning smile and bright blue eyes. She brought sunshine to everyone.

She will be greatly missed by her many friends.
