Anthony "Tony" Baker passed away Saturday, February 26, 2022, in his home surrounded by family after a courageous battle with cancer. He was 56 years old.  A native and lifelong resident of Vicksburg, he was the son of Sara Baker and the late Randall Baker. He was a graduate of Warren Central High School. He worked for Vicksburg Paint and Glass for many years prior to his employment with Price's Glass. He was a dedicated employee with Price's from 2006 until he was forced to give up his career due to health issues in December of 2021. The simplest pleasures in life brought great joy to Tony. He was a hard worker, best known for his glass projects. He spent most of his time helping others. Tony was always there to lend a hand. Some would even refer to him as "too good hearted".
