Meagan Baker Obituary
Meagan Leigh Hatch Baker, age 33, of Snellville, Georgia, passed away on Friday, March 31, 2023 from injuries sustained in a car wreck.
Meagan was born on August 11, 1989, to Cathleen Marie Brannan and Duane Ransom McCoy. She was adopted by Timothy Paul Hatch after his marriage to Cathleen and is a graduate of Camden County High School in Kingsland, GA, class of 2007.
After her graduation from high school, Meagan went on to attend the Paul Mitchell School in Atlanta Georgia. Upon her graduation from this program, she obtained her certification as a Master Cosmetologist.
Meagan was known by her friends and family to be a loving and caring person, full of life and vivacious. She never met a stranger and had a heart for the elderly and for those who were coping with disabilities. She also loved working with children and served on staff at Stockbridge Community Church in McDonough as a coordinator for the children’s program, and she is still a listed member for the church.
From the earliest times of her life, Meagan always loved going to the Shingleroof Campground in McDonough for the summer Methodist Camp Meeting. She loved going every year and her husband and children also attended regularly and loved staying in the Hunt family tent.
Meagan married her best friend, Howard Coleman Baker, III “Trae”. Although he is a Florida fan and she was a Tennessee fan, they somehow managed to make it work. She leaves behind her husband and three children, Aubrey Ruth Baker, age 11, Coleman Luke Baker, age 9, and Olivia Grace Baker, age 7.
Other family members include her parents, Tim and Cathleen Hatch; her brother, Patrick Hatch; her grandparents, Ransom and Patsy McCoy, and Danny and Cathy Morris; great grandfather, Dr. Roger C. Hatch, as well as numerous uncles, aunts, and cousins. She always brought smiles and laughter to any situation in life. Meg is loved and missed by all!
“The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.” Job 1:21b NASB
A service to honor Meagan’s Life will take place on Thursday, April 6, 2023 beginning 2:00 PM at Stockbridge Community Church, 4401 GA-155 N, Stockbridge, GA 30281. Interment will follow the service at Eastlawn Memorial Park in McDonough, Georgia. The family will receive friends on Wednesday, April 5, 2023 from 5:00 PM until 8:00 PM at Cannon Cleveland Funeral Directors. Those who wish may sign the online guest registry at www.cannonclevelandfunerals.com. Cannon Cleveland Funeral Directors, 770-914-1414.

I am just learning that this beautiful spirit has left this Earth. I am so saddened and heartbroken for her family. I met Meagan several times through Kacee. Each encounter was the same - a kind, bubbly, happy young woman that you instantly connected with. We enjoyed talking about shingle roof campground, a place that a dear friend of mine also cherishes. I don’t think this sweet girl ever met a stranger. I am blessed that I had the opportunity to meet her. Sending so much love and prayer to her family. A young life gone too soon. I know she will be terribly missed.

Meagan was apparently just like her mom who is my sweet friend and fellow Children’s Ministry teacher as well as our Church Secretary. Tim is a deacon at our church. When the Hatch family hurts, we hurt. They showed the true foundation of faith throughout this entire tragedy but new beginning for their daughter with our Heavenly Father. Meagan was obviously taught well. ❤

Her personality was infectious. Meagan was funny, confident, unapplogetic of who she was with the biggest heart. She had a way of always making you feel included. She was an amazing Mother and Wife to Trae and her amazing laugh and smile will be missed. May God hold Trae and their three young children in his hands during this difficult time. All of us lost an angel. Fly high Meagan!
