He was very closely bonded with and received so much love from his mother, late Grammy Anne Sherer, Uncle Kevin and Aunt Jane Baker and his brothers, Rich and Chad. He also loved his nieces and nephew deeply.
In addition to his mother, Janice, he is survived by his two brothers, Chad Baker and Rich Rodenberger and wife, Brittany; nieces, Sophia and Clara Baker and Olivia Rodenberger; and his nephew, Cole Rodenberger.
