Alvin J. Baker

January 14, 1938 — November 26, 2021

Alvin J. Baker, 83, of New Cumberland, passed away on Friday, November 26, 2021 in his residence.

He was a retired printer with the Navy Ships Parts Control Center, Hampden Twp., was a 1956 graduate of Middletown High School and was a member of St. Theresa Catholic Church, New Cumberland. Alvin was an avid Porsche enthusiast and a member of the Central PA Porsche Club.

Alvin enjoyed all types of dancing and met Joan, his wife to be, when he asked her to do the twist. They’ve been “Rockin” for 60 years!

Sheridan (Colby) of Marietta, GA; sister Doris Gyurko of Manheim; three grandsons, Mitchell, Evan and William; several nieces and nephews; and his extended family, Pat and Harold Lepley, Harold James Lepley, Vivian Donlevy and DJ Tamanoski.
