A DEATH
HAS OCCURRED
Jeffrey John Baron of Cold Springs, Kentucky passed away surrounded by his children on April 10, 2023, he was 70 years old. He was preceded in death by his parents Constance (nee Peterson) and Joseph Baron of Green Hills, Ohio.
Jeff was a lifelong resident of the Greater Cincinnati area and although he was retired, he still loved going to work everyday at Reeves’ golf course. Jeff also enjoyed spending time at the dog park, indulging in anything sweet, and traveling with his beloved wife of 38 years, Rebecca (nee Placke) Baron. Jeff’s sense of humor, kindness, and ability to talk to anyone regardless of whether he knew them or not will be sorely missed.
Jeff was the loving father of Scott (Katherine) Baron and Jillian (Michael) Perry, doting “Papa” to Katherine Perry, and the loyal brother of Dr. Keith (Dr. Lee Ann) Baron. Jeff is also survived by multiple brothers and sisters in law, nieces, and countless friends whom he truly loved to spend time.

“Jeff, thank you for making me laugh. Thank you for declaring, “It’s time for the gang to get together”. The dinners your declarations created did indeed bring us all together on many levels. Thank you for being a friend to Dave. By his own admission you were instrumental in him becoming the adult he is. I will always be grateful to you for all these things. Becky, Scott, and Jill, I pray you find moments of peace and joy in the next days and that those moments increase with each day as you heal from your loss.”
