A celebration of the life of Barbara Baker, who died Nov.15, will be held at the Hook, Line & Sinker restaurant in Frenchtown from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18.
She fought a long battle with cancer for the past seven years with her natural goods spirits and wit.
Barbara was born on Aug. 30, 1949, in Philadelphia, Penn., and grew up there and in New Jersey. She relocated to St. Thomas in the early 90s with her husband, Carl Marsini, who passed away in 1995. She worked at Hook, Line & Sinker in Frenchtown, where she immediately became part of the HLS family. The petite redhead brought some of New Jersey with her to the Virgin Islands. She was pert, sometimes feisty, quick with a comeback, and always with a smile.
