Obituary of Russell George Baker

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Russell George "Ace" Baker, who left us on March 17, 2025. Born on February 3, 1965, Russ was a loving parent, devoted sibling, and cherished friend. Russ was preceded in death by his loving mother and father, Joyce Zabriskie Baker and Robert Baker and leaves behind a legacy of love through his children: sons Shawn, Timothy, Oliver, and daughter Taylor. Russ grew up in Lake Stockholm, NJ. He owned and operated his own mobile autoglass replacement company, Ace Autoglass, for more than 20 years. A New Jersey resident for most of his life, he had been a Greeley, PA resident for the past five years. Russ is also survived by his siblings: brothers John and his wife Jannette, Daniel and his wife Anita, and Kenneth, and sisters Barbara and Sue. He was an uncle to three nephews, one of whom predeceased him, and seven nieces, as well as seventeen great nieces and nephews, who will carry his memory in their hearts. Throughout his life, Russ touched the lives of many with his kindness, humor, and support. He will be missed by all who knew him. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to organizations supporting mental illness awareness and treatment, a cause that was close to our hearts. A memorial service will be held at 2 PM on Saturday, April 26, at the Franklin Fire Department, 137 Buckwheat Rd., Franklin, NJ 07416. Friends and family are invited to come together to celebrate the life of Russ and share cherished memories.
