Itly Wilson Baker
January 27, 1950 — January 25, 2015
Itly Wilson Baker, age 64, died on January 25, 2015, surrounded by family and friends at his home in Mt. Pleasant after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.
Born on January 27, 1950 in Sumter, SC to Frederick Rutledge Baker, Jr. and Martha Shannon Wilson Baker, Wilson graduated from Edmunds High School in Sumter and the University of South Carolina.
Wilson was blessed with a family that loved him dearly. He is survived by his wife Dawn Edwards Baker; his brother Frederick Rutledge Baker, III and his wife Beth (of Sumter); and his sister Louise Shannon Baker Cromer and her husband Jimmy (of Sumter). He was father to Heathly Wilson Baker (James Island); Rutledge Carr Baker (Charleston); and Thomas Ballew Wilson Baker (Mt. Pleasant). He was grandfather to Mitchell Evelyn Baker and James Wilson Baker (of H. Wilson and wife Caroline). Wilson is preceded in death by his parents and by brother John Snowden Baker.
A professional photographer for over 40 years, Wilson saw the beauty in the world and showed it to us through his photographs. In 2011 he and Dawn became owners of SERVPRO of South & West Charleston. He was an avid fly fisherman with a passion and talent for tying exquisite flies. He found joy on the flats in pursuit of red fish and tarpon.
His life will be celebrated at a graveside service on Tuesday, January 27, 2015 at 2:00 pm. at Magnolia Cemetery (70 Cunnington Avenue, Charleston). In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to SEWEE Association Friends Group, 5821 N. Highway 17, Awendaw, SC 29429
