Born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Pamela was the beloved daughter of Howard and Hazel Gehman.

Later, she served as a kitchen assistant at Pleasant View Retirement Home, dedicating herself to supporting residents with kindness and compassion.

Pamela was an avid reader who found joy in visiting bookstores and discovering new stories. A devoted Philadelphia Phillies fan, she rarely missed a game and loved cheering for her team. Above all, she cherished time spent with her family and treasured the lifelong friendship she shared with her best friend, Joanne Tome .

She is survived by her husband of 44 years, Lewis Baker of Manheim; her children, Jeffrey Holzworth, Melissa Kirchner, and Robyn Hartman; five grandchildren; and eleven great‑grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her brothers, Thomas Gehman and Jerry Gehman.
