Benjamin Baran Obituary

Benjamin R. Baran



Benjamin Robert Baran, loving husband, father and grandfather, was an inspiration to his family and friends. Ben passed away on Tuesday, February 8, 2022, at the age of 86. He was born on December 22, 1935, in Racine, Wisconsin to Stanley Baran and Clara Jagla. Ben married Mary Kraemer on June 22, 1973, and had four children. Ben had a passion for teaching. He taught at the University of Albuquerque and later Bible study classes at various churches throughout Albuquerque. Ben was well known, loved and respected by those he knew and taught. He made an incredible impact on the lives of people and his wealth of knowledge is irreplaceable. He had a quick mind and an even faster smile and sense of humor. Ben had a presence that is difficult to describe. He loved to discuss a variety of topics with the people in his life and when he spoke, people listened. No one wanted to miss a gem of knowledge or witty quip of which Ben was known to impart. Ben is survived by three of his children, Robert Baran, Clare Steward and her husband Javis, and Jake (Stanley) Baran and his wife, Sarah. He also loved his daughter-in-law, Caitlin Padilla; and all his grandchildren, Javis, Jocelyn, Alaina, James and Sophia. He also leaves behind many beloved nieces and nephews. Ben was preceded in death by his wife, Mary; his three brothers, Stanley, Marty and Mel; and his son, Jonathan. Private family services will be held at a later date and time.
