Judy was born on October 28th, 1939 in Moline, Illinois to the late Pauline and William Patterson. She was preceded in death by her older brother William (Bill) Patterson.
Judy attended New Mexico State University, where she was majoring in Physics and Chemistry. She met her husband to be, on a blind date. After dating for only two months, she married the love of her life Larry Baker March 21, 1964 in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Four children were born from this union. Judy retired from the Southwest Bell Phone Company after 20 invested years. She also worked as a Teacher's Aide at Palo Verde School District in a Kindergarten, Second Grade and Special Needs class. She greatly enjoyed working with all children. Her passion and priorities centered around her family.

She loved her Family, Gardening, Turtles, Roses and everything "purdy".
Left to cherish her loving memory are her husband, Larry D. Baker; her children Diana Allen (Russell Allen), Kathy Cundiff (Mark Cundiff), Bryan Baker (Julie Baker), La...
