Mrs. Annie Lou Wiggins Baker, On Wednesday night, June 5th, the death angel took from us the sweet life of Mrs. Jay Baker, formerly Annie Lou Wiggins. She was a member of the M. E. church at Jackson Chapel. Her life was a blessing to her husband and little children. She was only twenty years old, and married about four years ago. She was ill only a few days, having been taken suddenly sick the Thursday night before her death. We bade her goodbye but are truly glad to say that on the great resurrection day when she is called forth she will inherit a home in the bright beyond where sickness, sorrow and sin can never more prevail. Friday afternoon she was laid to rest in Jackson Chapel cemetery. Services were conducted by Rev. Ed. Dempsey. She is survived by her husband, Mr. Jay Baker, and two small children, Lucy J., aged 3 years, and Harry, aged 10 months; her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Wiggins; a sister, Miss Coral, and two brothers, Messrs. Horace and Jackson Wiggins. Our loss is Heaven's gain, and may we all meet our dear Annie Lou "on that bright and Golden Shore, where sad parting is no more." --Mrs Ralph Shaw. (Cedartown Standard, Thursday, June 13, 1918)
