Ernest Bakker Obituary
The world bids farewell to Ernest Bakker (Bellevue, Washington), departing on September 27, 2025 at the age of 78. Ernest leaves behind memories cherished by the community. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Ernest farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Ernest is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He is survived by: his wife Verla Bakker; his daughters, Nichole Jacobson (Jeff) and Stephanie Baumann (Kurt); and his grandchildren, Dillon, Casey, Sydney, Luke and Ashley.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, October 25th 2025 at 10:00 AM at the Newport Presbyterian Church (4010 120th Ave SE, Bellevue, WA 98006).
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to Ernie's favorite charity, Tunnel to Towers (https://t2t.org), in support of U.S. veterans.
