Passed away peacefully at the Victoria Hospice Centre on January 9, 2012 after a courageous battle with cancer at the age of 28 years.
Jordan was born on October 29 1983 in Edmonton Alberta. He quickly grew up loving baseball, football and all kinds of other sports. He moved to Brentwood Bay when he was 9 and simply loved it out here on the island. He grew up larger than life with his witty little one liners and funny jokes where ever he went. He followed in his big brother’s footsteps when he decided to be a painter which became very soothing for him. Jordan had a great group of friends that he would do anything for at any time. Jordan’s life will be celebrated by all his family and friends forever.
Lovingly remembered by his mom and dad, Kathie and Jim Baker; brothers, Ken (Janet), Brent, Jamie (Ashley) and Jim (Lisa); sister, Lindsay (Tony); maternal grandmother, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
A special thank you to all the doctors and nurses at the Royal Jubilee Patient Care Centre, Floors 7 & 8, and the BC Cancer Agency.

We are sad and shocked to hear of Jordans untimely death, as we did not know of his illness. We only knew him for a very short but wonderful time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
