Joe Robert Baulch

I am sorry to hear of Joe's passing. I am the daughter of his former sister-in-law, Patsy Watson Baulch. I had recently begun putting together my family's history, and had hoped to talk with Joe about his brother, David. I used to visit with Dave's parents as a very small child. They were good to me, even though I was not their grandchild. I am sorry for your loss.

We just learned that long-time West Texas Historical Association member Joe Baulch of Austin passed away in December. He was a regular attendee to the annual conference, presented numerous times, and published "W. P. Soash On The Urban Frontier of West Texas" in the 1972 West Texas Historical Association Year Book. He studied history at Texas Tech University and was a student of the renown TTU Professor Ernest Wallace. He received his Ph. D. in 1974 having written his dissertation...

Although we can't be with you while you remember your loved one, you're in our thoughts from afar.

On behalf of the United States Submarine Veterans (USSVI), I offer our sincere condolences on Joe's passing. You and your loved ones are in our thoughts and prayers. We are forever grateful for Joe's service to our country in the U.S. Submarine Service. To our Brother of the Phin we say, Sailor, rest your oar. We have the watch. May you rest in peace and may God bless your loved ones who remain. Thank you for your service to our country."
Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace...

No greater gift can a man bestow another than an education. Mr. Baulch, you influenced many directly, and many more indirectly. You were an incredible man, as I have seen through your son Joel.

I carry a special golf club in my bag that Joe made for me many years ago. I remember his kindness to me in so many ways and am grateful for having spent time with him. Some fun times were spent whacking golf balls behind the Baulch's house in Kerrville. I will always carry a special fondness for him. Blessings to you, Sarah, and your children and grandchildren.

Although I knew Joe Baulch only slightly from a couple of visits we had, I quickly came to appreciate Schreiner's history from his volume, and I had the opportunity to glimpse how important his contributions to the Institute, College and University were. My sympathy and best wishes go to all the Baulch family.
