First of all we give thanks for the gift God gave us in a husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and friend in the form of Marvin Albert Baggett. He was an unsung hero in his family’s eyes. Marvin was born, April 11, 1929 to Luther and Hazel Baggett. He married his sweetheart, Earline “Sally” Baggett, on April 10, 1948. They were married for 66 years. After his wife, Earline passed away he was blessed again to find another sweetheart and married Ouida Baggett, June 26, 2015. He was self-employed all of his life. His work ethics were unparalleled. As a young man he joined his father in the logging and sawmill business. In the 1950’s he began a long career of cross country trucking, contracting to Mayflower and United Van Lines. In 1974 he decided to quit the long distance haul to be at home with his family and the grandchildren that were on their way. He formed Baggett Trucking and operated that business, as well as, manager of Southern Silica until 1998 when he retired. He may not have had a business anymore but he never quit working. He was a faithful member of Indian Village United Pentecostal Church until his health began to fail, but his heart was always there. Marvin will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. Those left to cherish Marvin’s memory include his wife, Ouida Baggett; son, Timothy Baggett and wife, Sue, of Moss Bluff; his daughter, June Savant and husband , Tyrone, of Kinder; five grandchildren, Jared Savant and wife, Tanya, Ashley Marcantel, and Blake Savant, all of Kinder, Jill Mahoney and husband, John, of Pearland, TX., Glyn Baggett and wife, Rhesa, of Brentwood, TN; eight great grandchildren, Lindsay Andreas and husband, Cody, Abigayle Dodd and husband, Cameron, Mallory, Sidney, Brynley, Makenzie, Josie and Cali; and two great- great grandchildren, Liam and Hayes. Marvin is preceded in death by his wife of 66 years, Earline “Sally” Baggett; parents, Luther M. and Hazel Baggett; and one brother, Horace Baggett. He was a great provider, encourager, counselor, advisor…a giant of a man! There will be a huge void in our lives. The impact he had on our lives will live on in us forever. Read More
