My heart goes out to Cathy and to Gwyneth. Very fond memories of Jane and the entire musical Baumann family who shared their gifts so brilliantly at Church of Christ Uniting. I enjoyed singing there with Cathy and Diane and admiring the senior choir every Sunday. Jane and Fred were such excellent contributors in the choir.
Extra special gratitude to Cathy for her loving care and attention to Jane especially in her final years.
