Veronica L. Baker
When Veronica entered Heaven on March 12th, 2021, she was reunited with her loving husband, Al. Al passed on February 15th, 2021 and Ronnie just couldn’t bear to be away from him any longer. 74 years simply wasn’t enough time together and she ran straight into his arms.
Veronica was born on March 26th 1925 in Washington, PA to her parents Samuel and Mary Maleski.
She married Al on June 21st 1947 and together they raised 3 daughters, Kathy Baker (Terry Kuhlmann), Barb Cass (Paul), Marci Sikora (Richard) and 1 son, Richard (Amy). Veronica was also blessed with 9 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren, all of whom she adored very much.
She was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Joseph, Walter, Edward and John. Her sister Mary Jane Dague survives.
Veronica spent most of her life as a homemaker. Her hobbies included cooking, baking and growing the most beautiful flowers. Ronnie definitely had a green thumb. It was often said she could grow a rose on solid concrete and it would be a beautiful rose. Her cooking skills were also above par. Nobody ever went hungry in her home and leftovers were always plentiful. In her later years she enjoyed having her great grandchildren over to visit. They gave her many wonderful smiles and memories to take with her on her journey.
Friends will be received on Friday-March 19, 2021 from 10:00 A.M. until 12:00 P.M. the hour of a blessing service in the Warco-Falvo Funeral Home, Inc., Wilson at East Katherine Ave., Washington, S.
