Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Shelby Lynn Baker (19) and Mina Marie Baker(infant), passed away suddenly on November 10th, 2024, in Vero Beach, Florida.
Shelby, Shelb, or Shelbers, was a fun, care-free, spirited young woman who would light up a room the moment she entered it. She made sure to make everyone feel welcome, loved, and to make them laugh at least once in her presence.
Shelby was expecting her first child, a daughter named Mina. Mina was going to enter the world late December/early January and was already loved and cared for by so many.
Shelby and Mina’s early exit from the world will leave an everlasting impact on family and friends’ hearts.
Survivors include Charlie Baker (father/grandfather), Lindsey Baker (mother/grandmother), Kairi Baker (sister/aunt), Mike Baker (grandfather/great-grandfather), Kristi/Ron Pisciottano (grandparents/great grandparents), Chuck/Brenda Bradley (grandparents/great grandparents), Gilleann/ Eric Harmody (aunt/uncle-great aunt/uncle), Morgan/Dustin Chasteen (aunt/uncle-great aunt/uncle), and cousins Orion and Atticus Chasteen.
A celebration will be held at a later time and announced to family and friends.
Arrangements are by Thomas S. Lowther Funeral Home & Crematory, Vero Beach.

Shelby and Mina, you both are truly missed. I was just reminiscing about the time you and I would dance and play together, we would laugh and laugh and laugh. I wish I could go back and have that day with you all over again. I know we drifted apart over the years, but know I loved you more than anything. I love you Shelbers. I wish you could have gotten to play with Orion and Atticus, Orion reminds me of you when you were little, rotten to the core! Please watch over them for me. I love you with all my heart, Aunt Morgan

Sometimes I stop and think what Shelby’s life would’ve been like if things didn’t end up this way. There are a million different outcomes what her life would’ve been like and what her daughter Mina’s would have. But the thing ai hold on to the most is the three angels taken too soon, are the most beautiful guardian angels to us all. Being somewhat close to Shelby in the months before her death, gave me peace knowing that I was someone she could call if she just needed someone to talk to. I miss our calls where she would tell me what’s going on in her life and I would vent about my feelings. She gave me good support and I did for her. Shelby had a really positive outlook through all the bad things in life, nobody could ever take away her shine. Now she is as bright as a star can get, she’s an angel. They will all be missed immensely, but thankfully together in incredible bliss waiting for our arrival when it’s our time.

Shelby, the thought of you being gone breaks my heart. It’s impossible to put into words the grief we feel over losing you. You’ve left a void that can never be filled.
You had the most fiery, carefree spirit I’ve ever known, and I’ll miss that about you so much.
Right now, so many of us are asking ourselves what we could’ve done differently. There’s so much regret, so many things left unsaid, so many “I love yous” we never got to share.
I wish we could’ve met Mina and watched you step into motherhood. I wish we could’ve seen you graduate, buy your first car, and celebrate all the milestones you deserved to reach.
I take comfort in knowing you’re at peace now, free from your struggles, but I know I’ll carry you with me for the rest of my life.
