The family of Kurt Baker, 22, said a visitation has been scheduled for Sunday night at Faith Lutheran Church in Fair Oaks, Calif., in the Sacramento area. Services will be held Monday at Faith Lutheran Church.

The Baker family has set up a Web site for friends and family on which the describe he is described as "a fun-loving, adventurous spirit who loved sports, the beach and spending time with family and friends."

Baker had recently transferred from Grossmont College and was studying sports medicine. He lived at the fraternity-owned house near the San Diego State University campus with friends, who found him unconscious on his bed and called 911 when they were unable to wake him up. They told the emergency dispatcher that he appeared not to be breathing.

The friends tried to revive Baker with CPR. When paramedics arrived, they took over. Baker was taken to Alvarado Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Officials are still waiting on the toxicology report with the official cause of death.
