Darlene Edna (Simmons) Baker

On May 7, 2026 Darlene Edna Baker (nee: Simmons) passed away. Beloved mother of Karen Baker Sower; Dear sister of Charles J. Simmons and the late Ronald Calvin Simmons. 

Darlene wasn’t just a mom—she was a steady source of warmth, patience, and quiet strength. Whether she was offering gentle guidance, celebrating even the smallest victories, or simply listening with her whole heart, she created a home where love was the foundation of everything. Her kindness showed up in a thousand small, consistent ways, and those who were lucky enough to be loved by her carry that light forward.
