Roger Woodard Baldwin, ![baldwin]()
76, prominent businessman of Poplar Bluff, passed away on Thursday, November 3, 2016, at Poplar Bluff Regional Medical Center.
Roger, the son of the late Woodard and Frances Baldwin, was born on December 17, 1939, in Poplar Bluff. After graduating from Poplar Bluff High School in 1958, he attended Westminster College and Arkansas State. After receiving his business degree, he worked for Phillips Petroleum before returning to Poplar Bluff in the 1960s to work for Midwest Video. He then worked for Tommy DiSalvo in the local Anheuser Busch distributorship. In 1973, he and Harry Blackwell formed a partnership and purchased their first automobile dealership in Poplar Bluff, Blackwell-Baldwin Oldsmobile Cadillac. Over the years, they acquired numerous dealerships in southern Missouri and northeast Arkansas. In 2012, the partnership was dissolved and Roger along with his wife, son, and daughters started Baldwin Automotive Group in Poplar Bluff with the franchises of Ford, Lincoln, Toyota, GMC, Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac. In addition to the automobile dealership, Roger began acquiring stock in First Midwest Bank of Poplar Bluff in 1975.
