Betty Jo Baca

Betty Jo Baca passed away peacefully after a valiant fight with cancer on Monday evening, July
26,2021 at the age of 72.
She was born in Rosebud on February 27, 1949 to Willie and Faye Ramey Niesen. Betty
graduated from Chilton High School in 1967 where she went to State in Tennis. She is preceded
in death by her parents and her in-laws, Mary Kate and Leroy Baca and brother-in-law, Tommy
Smith.
Betty is survived by her husband of 50 years, Mike Baca, daughters, Michelle Baca Harris and
husband Tommy Harris and Kelly Baca White.
One of Betty’s greatest joys was being Nana to her 5 grandkids, Lane, Caden, Callyn, Brody,
and Carra. She loved going to all their activities and supporting their events—she never missed
if at all possible.
She is also survived by three sisters, Carla Doles, Sue Mahler, and Debra Niesen and one sisterin-law, Bea Smith and many wonderful nieces and nephews. The family wishes to thank special
caregiver, Tameka Truesdale Lopez.
Betty was in banking for over 30 years. Betty and Mike were inseparable and enjoyed their
friends, hunting, playing golf, going to the deer lease and dancing. Betty was a planner and she
loved gardening, carpentry, and antiquing. Betty is loved by many.
Special thanks to Elizabeth Anyanda and Dr. Ekokobe Fonkem at Vasicek Cancer Treatment
Center and the Hospice Nurses & Aides.
