Not sure what to say?

Every now and then the Universe blesses us with a human life that is so exceptional it defies comparison and leaves the lucky few of us who got to know that person incredible perspective and faith in humanity. Bob was that guy. Get some rest my good friend. I'm not sure you ever took the time for that while you you were with us.

I first met Bob when our heat stopped working in freezing temperatures on Thanksgiving Day! With two small children and elderly grandparents in the house, of course he came out to help us! I made sure he ate a plate of our family favorites because he immediately felt like family to me! We all became good friends with Bob over the years. I enjoyed hearing him speak so lovingly of Audrey, his children and granddaughter. I have never seen a man as generous of spirit as Bob Bauman! I could see...

I was very saddened to hear of the death of my cousin, Bob Bauman. He was certainly a special person and it was gratifying to hear so many people write about him in such glowing terms. He and his sister Betty were favorites of mine as we grew up in Catonsville as the "8 cousins". It was always a treat to be with Bob at his house and at the family gatherings. His expertise in many things showed up early as he was the first to amaze us with the newest devices: Tape recorders,...

My sincere condolences to Bob's family & everyone at BeamCo. All of us at Pi Beta Phi will miss Bob & are grateful for all of his help & expertise over the years. A true gentleman. I feel blessed to have known him.

Bob was a really nice person and an amazing problem solver for all mechanical problems. My condolences to his family.

Anyone who knew Bob knew he was the most giving and helpful man around. I met him years ago when Cisco Mayse(also deceased) brought him to my business to help fix an old gas pack A/C. Since then everyone who's reading this knows what Bob did for us. We all know he was a spiritual kind soul who would help people if he could and was one of the few angels alive on earth and I will miss him and think of him often.

Our heartfelt condolences to all of Bob's family ~ Rest in gentle eternal peace Bob, your smile will be so missed and always remembered

Susan and family our condolences to all of your loss. We will miss seeing him going in and out with his dog.
