Teresita (Pelagio) Baker Obituary

Location: Glen Abbey Little Chapel of Roses

With profound sadness we announce the death of Teresita Pelagio Baker (from San Diego, California) our loving and devoted mother, family and friend to all whose lives she touched, who passed away on July 8, 2020, at the age of 73, leaving heavy hearts of our family and friends.

Teresita aka Tess/Tessie was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She especially loved her role as Grandmother. She lit up in seeing her grandchildren happy, thrive and become successful in life! She had a vivacious personality and always made people around her laugh and feel so loved. She was an amazing story-teller. She was extremely excited about her incredible journey as an immigrant from the Philippines and created the most successful life with her family in the United States...a real American dream! And the rest was history...full of highs and lows, full of adventures and challenges, full of love with and from her family, nothing short of full of life!

Tess was a devoted child of God. Selfless and ALWAYS giving. Her life was a living example of this perfect Bible verse, Ephesians 4:32 — “And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ.”

We lost a beautiful earth angel and Heaven gained the most loving and devoted child of our Almighty Father.

Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Teresita Pelagio Baker to pay them a last tribute and please feel free to share a special memory or story - we will cherish it Forever in her Life Remembrance Book to pass on to Teresita Pelagio Baker's grandchildren, great grandchildren and future generations. You may also light a candle in honor of Teresita Pelagio Baker.
