Remembering Garnett Baker: He always had a good time He never let the writer forget about the milking contest when Gary Lane rival milker was O.A. "Cotton" Durham. Garnett Baker was to supply the "cows." Both opponents in the contest were in for a Garnett Baker surprise By Gary Lane I have a lot of great memories of Garnett Baker but the best one will be a milking contest he arranged on the Square during a County dairy day many years ago. I was to milk against former County Attorney, Cotton Durham. Garnett would bring the cows. To his delight, he led goats upon a trailer in front of a large crowd on the Square. It wasn't the first time I had milked a goat and the Mr. Durham might have had a little help in getting more milk than me, but Garnett had the biggest laugh. He always asked me about milking goats on the Square in Columbia when I saw him. He always had a good time and I know he will be missed greatly by family and friends in Adair county. Rest in peace Mr. Baker. -Gary Lane Comments re photo 58996 Unforgettable Garnett Baker (1926-2015) This story was posted on 2015-02-20 16:48:37
