Obituary:
Deseret News on May 5, 2011: "June Baker died Sunday, May 1, 2011. She is survived by her sons, Chuck (Paula) Baker, Bob (Stephanie) Baker, Tom (Julie) Baker, and Mike Baker; eight grandchildren and her sisters and brothers in California, Washington, DC, and Florida. June lost her husband of forty-nine years, Charles Baker, in 2004. June will be remembered for her amazing sense of humor. Even in her last year of struggle, she enlivened the lives of all who knew her in the nursing homes. She would often write down jokes and make her companions laugh. June made the best of things; she enjoyed moving to Utah in 1971 and joining the LDS Church. She loved her family and would always be shopping to buy things to make people happy. Many thanks to the neighbors and caregivers who helped June over the past few years. Funeral Services will be held on Saturday, May 7, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. in the Crescent Twenty-Fourth Ward Chapel, 275 East 10600 South, Sandy, UT, where family and friends may call on Saturday morning from 11:00 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. prior to the services. Interment: Larkin Sunset Gardens Cemetery."

Memories about June Tandberg:
Pauline on May 24, 2006 said: "June was dating a wealthy man named Paul Van Kline. Instead she married Charles Baker and they had to move to Utah for his new job in 1970. They converted to Mormonism after moving there and they converted Sharon Cangelosi too."

Researched and written by Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) for Findagrave starting on May 3, 2006. A duplicate entry was created on May 4, 2011 by Ryan Curtis. The 2006 entry was combined with the 2011 entry and the 2006 entry was deleted on October 26, 2014. The 2011 entry was kept because it had the correct cemetery. Ryan then transferred the combined entry back to me. Updated on May 15, 2022 with the text about her wedding.
