Robert R. Baker passed peacefully at his home on Saturday, Aug. 30, 2025, in the company of loved ones.

Born Feb. 19, 1965, in Canandaigua, NY, he was the 8th of 9 children of George and Mary Baker, Honeoye, NY.

Bob was a graduate of Honeoye Central School and Community College of the Finger Lakes with Associates Degrees in Business/DP in 1985. Bob was an industrious young man who learned to use power tools by the age of 10. He worked at the family owned business, Baker Rental Sales and Fabrication, Inc, where his father and brothers taught him skills in mechanics, welding, sales, manufacturing & engineering. Bob also worked in new home construction, and then for a short period in a group home for developmentally disabled for a change of pace.

He then came to West Virginia in 2000 to work as a volunteer at Gesundheit Institute and was subsequently hired there to complete a one year construction project. Upon completion he moved to Lewisburg, and became a licensed master plumber, then formed Baker Home Services in 2002. He was joined by his brother Steven who moved from North Carolina in 2010 to become his business partner.

Robert was preceded in death by his parents and is survived by siblings, Walter (Carol Fox), Kathy Stumbo (Keith), John (Linda), Carolyn Gorton (Lynn), Albert (Dale), Sharon Gendreau, Steven and Barbara Ashmead (Robert), many cousins, nieces, nephews (great and great-great). Of comfort and support was his girlfriend, Christina Tulloh, her children, Gypsy and Dennis, Bob’s close friends Gus Saldana, Sherry Blake, Shannon Beatty, Cynthia Clark, Gage Clark, Michael Buttrill, Christen Clark, Jessica Levine and many other friends who came to his side at his time of need.

Bob will be remembered for his smile, his kind heart, his ability fix anything, to fashion useful items from reclaimed materials and his talent for playing congas in Distant Light (band). The family is grateful for all who cared for him including members of the Lewisburg Area Community, other friends and Hospice Care.

There will a Celebration of Life for Bob at Lewis Theater, 865 Court Street, Lewisburg, WV, 24901 from 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 21.

Wallace & Wallace Funeral Home in Lewisburg is in charge of arrangements. Please send online condolences by visiting: www.WallaceandWallaceFH.com.
