Elizabeth (Lizzy) Lynn Baker passed away in her home on January 18, 2024 at the age of 67. She was born on February 15, 1956 in Mississippi.
Lizzy was a person of remarkable organization and order. Her meticulous nature and attention to detail were evident in every aspect of her life. Whether it was “putting herself together”, maintaining a tidy home, or helping her friends and family organize their homes, she approached everything with precision and care.
