Baker Brothers Obituary

Baker Ray Brothers, precious infant son of Jacob Brothers and Naomi Keller was gently carried to Heaven in the arms of the angels, Friday, January 19, 2024. Born on January 11, 2024, he brought a light into the world that no one will forget.

Surviving sweet baby Baker are his parents, his father, Jacob “Jake” Brothers; his mother, Naomi Keller, both of Centralia; his protective big brothers, Brantley, and Beckett; paternal grandparents, Jeff and Karen Brothers; maternal grandparents, Nathan Keller and wife Nicole; paternal great-grandmothers, Frankie Brothers, Barbara Glennon, and Lynn James; maternal great-grandmothers, Micki Corley; and proud aunts and uncles, Jared Brothers, Dacey Keller, Nathan Keller II, Bentlee Keller, and Corbin Keller.
Baker was preceded in death by paternal grandfathers, Harold “Sonny” Brothers, and Larry James.

Baker was a beautiful baby who immediately stole the hearts of everyone with his sweet, sweet smile. He brought unexplainable joy to his mommy and daddy as they shared cuddles and kisses. Baker was blessed with two big brothers who were amazed by the strength of his grip when he held their fingers tight. He was a fierce warrior, who fought to stay with his family, but whose goodness was needed back in Heaven. Baker will forever be remembered for the sunshine and love he brought into the lives of his family.

A celebration of life service will be held at 11:00 a.m. Friday, January 26, 2024, at the Irvin Macz Funeral Home in Centralia with Pastor Seth Baltzell officiating. Friends and relatives are welcome to offer words of comfort and support to Baker's family from 10:00 a.m. until the time of the service on Friday at the funeral home in Centralia.
