Lisa Keller Baker

Our sweet daughter, mother, sister and grandmother, Lisa Marie Baker, unexpectedly returned into the arms of her Heavenly Father on the evening of March 19th, 2024, at the age of 52. Born on April 8,1971, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to her devoted parents, Russell and Beverly Poulson Keller.

Lisa's vibrant spirit and zest for life were truly remarkable. Her infectious laughter and jokes had the power to light up any room she entered. She had a free-spirited nature that radiated energy and joy to those around her. Lisa was not only a fun-loving person, but also a talented artist who found solace in drawing and writing. She had a deep love for movies and cherished spending quality time with her family, as they meant the world to her.

One of Lisa's greatest qualities was her ability to make everyone feel special and loved. She had a unique gift of connecting with people and her warm presence left a lasting impact on those fortunate enough to know her. As a Certified Nursing Assistant, Lisa dedicated many years to caring for others in skilled nursing facilities and hospice care. Her genuine compassion and unwavering dedication to her residents and their families reflected her true character. She treated them as if they were her own family, driven by a passion to help and support others.

Above all, Lisa's most cherished roles and accomplishments in life were being a mother and grandmother. She adored being a mother and her children were her world. Lisa had an incredible ability to make her children feel loved and valued. She listened to them attentively, ensuring they always felt seen, heard, and cherished. Her nurturing touch extended to her ten grandchildren, who affectionately called her "Nana". They will forever remember the special moments they shared with Nana, from playing hide and seek in the dark to going on trips to the gas station for treats and coloring together. Lisa's love for her grandchildren knew no bounds.

We will deeply miss Lisa and the immense impact she had on our lives. She is survived by her parents, Russell and Beverly Keller, her children, Erik Baker, Melanie Glavin, Brittney Tierney, Cody Baker and Korbin Baker, her sisters Natalie Keller and Adrienne Johnson, and her brothers Chad and Blake Keller. Additionally, Lisa leaves behind her beloved grandchildren, Braxten Peck, Peyton Glavin, Kadence Baker, Maddox Glavin, Courtney Tierney, Brody Glavin, Hazel Glavin, Ariya Baker, Taytem Glavin and Ava Tierney as well as her daughter-in-laws, son-in-laws and brother-in-law; her nieces and nephews as well as many extended family members and friends who will forever miss her. She is met in death by her grandparents Fred Keller and Lola Marie Keller; Garland Poulson and Willy Poulson. Her uncles Jay Poulson and Lyle Keller. May her beautiful soul rest in eternal peace.
