In loving memory of Robert Baker who sadly passed away on 29th February 2024.

Bob was so very loved and will be so very missed by Julie, Lucy, Nick, Matt, Rosie, Maya and all his friends and family.

Please feel free to share any stories and memories of the time you spent with Bob - whether you are family, a friend or a colleague.

Rather than a floral tribute, please see the donation page where we are asking for donations to the 'Royal College of Nursing Foundation' in recognition of the wonderful support Bob received from the district nursing team.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us as a family, we all appreciate it.


If you plan on attending, please RSVP using the buttons below. Dress code: please don’t feel obliged to wear black; Bob was not one for formality.

Bob was a part of three of the best years of my life, spent at Aber, and a stalwart member of our ‘Ceredigion Family’. I remember how nothing seemed to faze him, as well as his perfect sardonic sense of humour, which never wasted a word. I also remember him as a superb No.8, in the middle, alongside Wynf & Doug, of one of the best back rows I ever played alongside. It was a privilege. God Bless, Bob

I worked with Robert at SMMT for nearly 2 decades and we were also South Croydon buddies. He was a lovely man, larger than life, really funny and so so clever - he left a big Robert-shaped hole in the office when he retired and we speak about him often. My condolences to his family.

Robert was a brilliant colleague and an exceptionally clever man. But the best thing of all was his humour - it was definitely was dryer than any martini I have ever had. He will be much missed
