Age 71, of Hobart, went to be with her Lord Monday, July 16, 2012. Daneth was born on December 18, 1940 in Rochester, NY to Wright and Barbara Baker.
She was a model wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, and sister. She dedicated her life to serving the Lord for over 50 years in many ways shortly after graduating from Baptist Bible Seminary in NY. She did this by being an ABWE missionary to Peru, serving students, children, and many others as she was a pastor's wife for 45 years. The things that were most important to her was her love for Jesus Christ, her family, her church, and her country. If she knew you then she had most likely prayed for you and was a great example of the love of Christ to others. She was known for her beautiful smile that radiated Jesus love for others.
