How Did Jerry Baker from 23 Blast Die?
Jerry Baker’s story sadly does not have a happy ending though like his former best friend Travis Freeman.
Baker tragically died at the age of 26 in 2007.
He wasnt a believer, and he got wrapped up in drugs and alcohol.
A few years ago he was involved in a roofing accident and was paralyzed.
So its really a story of two friends and how they deal with tragedy and adversity differently.
Baker was survived by his daughter, Kailee, and mother, Vicki.
I think Jerry was there for me.
You’re going to be just like everybody else, and I am not giving up on you.'
I think he would be honored to have the role that he has in the movie."
