I will miss Robert the rest of my days. He was one of the best friends I have ever had. I loved him and will so miss being able to visit with him. Since the first year I met him, he never forgot to send me a dozen roses on my birthday. The kindness and warmth he showed me meant the world to me.

Your dad became a member of our family the day we met him. We enjoyed seeing him on his daily walks. He would share a funny story or a piece of wisdom or just visit. And we appreciated how he 'looked out' for Nanny and Papa. He will have a special place in all of our hearts and will be truly missed.

I have a few fond memories of uncle Bob. My grandpa Richard Baus was the chief's brother. He and aunt Helen were good folks. I am sorry for your loss and my prayers are with you

Chief Baus, was a Captain when I joined the Police Department in 1960 and he was the first Captain I worked for. He was a good guy, a good friend and one heck of a Policeman.
