Bryant Hometown Hero: Pat Baker
We would like for you to meet this week’s Hometown Hero: Pat Baker!
Pat is the co-owner of Baker’s Fine Jewelry with her daughter, Carla Baggett. She’s owned and operated this business for 39 years! Pat is also a member of the Bryant Rotary Club and both the Bryant and Benton Chamber of Commerce. She served on the board of the Bryant Boys and Girls Club for ten years and is now an honorary board member. With this organization, Pat has seen many children’s lives changed and influenced for the better. She is also an overseer of the Bryant Rotary Kids Closet where she has helped clothe almost 1,000 children last year in Saline County.
Pat opened Baker’s Fine Jewelry in Warren, AR almost 40 years ago, and they are still servicing people in the community with all their jewelry needs. She moved to Saline County almost 15 years ago so her daughter and granddaughter could both be part of her business’s continued growth. Since moving to Bryant, Pat has seen the community grow and flourish. She loves the positive outlook the city has and all of the wonderful people she gets to see and meet every day.
In her free time, Pat enjoys traveling the world to see new places and cultures. Also, each morning she goes to the Bishop pool for her workout! She has two daughters and is the Nana of five grandchildren and three (soon to be four) great-grandchildren.
