Obituary: John H. (Johnny) Baker died at home May 28, 2015 following years of declining health. Born in Lancaster , South Carolina, he moved to Monroe, North Carolina as a boy. He attended the local schools, graduated from Monroe High School, and attended both Wingate and North Carolina State University. When World War II began, Johnny worked as a civil engineer for J.A. Jones Construction . That work led to an assignment building houses and offices for the then secret city of Oak Ridge, Tennessee where he met and married Josephine (Jo) Crawford of Newport, Tennessee. As the war was ending, J.A. Jones sent him to Jackson, Mississippi on a large construction project. Johnny and Jo fell in love with Jackson, and decided they would make a permanent move. Johnny opened a used car lot on South Street and later worked for various Jackson automobile dealers. In 1955 he became owner of the Brandon Ford Dealership, which he operated as Johnny Baker Ford for thirty-one successful years. During that time he also served on many elective councils and boards of Ford dealer groups including the National Dealership Council. Johnny loved music, and found his musical niche when he first heard barbershop quartet harmony. He was active for over fifty years in the local chapter of the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America. He enjoyed singing with his quartet the Chord Colonels and with the Magnolia Chorus, but it was as a Master of Ceremonies where he really shined. His dry wit and impeccable timing kept his talents in demand with barbershop chapters throughout the south. Many Jackson residents will remember how he emceed the annual Jackson barbershop show for over forty years, and his family fondly remembers how his humor and charm had audiences eating from his hand. Jo died in 2005, Johnny told family members he always wondered how she felt about his “wife jokes” until one year when she complained he hadn’t told enough. Johnny was a member of First Presbyterian Church. He was a charter member and president of the Rankin Rotary Club, which he attended as long as his health allowed. Members will remember he especially enjoyed the question and answer session following the weekly program. He was a Rotary Paul Harris Fellow. Yearly the Rotary Club presents the Baker-Robinson Rotarian of the Year award. He also served as president of the Brandon Chamber of Commerce. Johnny was the youngest of nine children born to Joseph Hampton and Arminta Hays Baker, all of whom preceded him in death. He is survived by his two daughters, Jan Maddux (John M. Maddux) of Greeneville, Tennessee and Emmy Meador (Dr. Gordon Meador) of Flowood. Grandchildren William E. Maddux of Greeneville, Tennessee, Brandy Maddux Widener of Johnson City, Tennessee, John Bradford Maddux (Rita E. Maddux) of Asheville, North Carolina; Rev. Elizabeth Meador Strobel (Charles Strobel) of Independence, Missouri, and Dr. Andrew Meador of Memphis, Tennessee; great granddaughters Emma Elizabeth Maddux of Hendersonville, Tennessee and Mary Katherine Widener of Greeneville, Tennessee. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be sent to First Presbyterian Church, 1390 North State Street, Jackson, MS 39202 or French Camp Academy, 1 Fine Place, French Camp, MS 39745. Visitation will be from 3 to 5 p.m. at Parkway home in Ridgeland. services will be at 11 a.m. at the funeral home with internment to follow in Parkway . |
