CFC Veteran Dariel Baker, U.S. Army (Retired), Passes |
Chief Warrant Officer 3 (CW3) Dariel Baker went home to be with the Lord on July 8, 2026, at the age of 91.
Dariel loved the Lord and faithfully served our country for 20 years in the U.S. Army. He was also a valued and active participant in the CFC Veteran Ministry. We are grateful for his love for Christ, faithful military service, and the many lives he touched. Dariel will be deeply missed, but we rejoice in the promise of eternal life through Jesus Christ.
