Mrs. Baker was born on June 29, 1944 to the late Crowsey Martin and Minnie Hancock Martin. She was a faithful member of Temple of Faith in Ridgeway, VA. Gloria was well loved by many nieces, nephews and dear friends as she was always willing to help others. Passionate about shopping, cooking and gift giving for no other reason than to see a little smile on their face. A new journey awaits her in Heaven where we will miss her dearly until we meet once again.

My sweet Aunt Gloria you will be missed dearly. I will miss our phone calls, laughter, prayers, visiting you. Your wonderful homemade pound cakes that you seemed to make me every time I drove in from Knoxville. You fought the good fight, kept your courage, faith and love of God thru your long journey of sickness. You never complained or questioned your sickness always said that you asked God to use you. For whatever reason God choice not to heal you but take you home to be with Him and your love ones. But He did use you Gloria you empacted my life and so many more. I love you and look forward to the day I will see you again. ❤️
