Misty lived life to the fullest. She had a lifelong love of horses, enjoyed snowmobile trips, attending car races, but most importantly she loved her grandchildren.

Misty was preceded in death by her father, Michael Baker, and stepfather Robert Monroe.
A memorial service will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the family to go towards funeral costs.
