William "Bill" G. Jr.
William "Bill" G. Bauman Jr., age 92, of Delta, passed away at Fulton County Health Center on Easter morning, Sunday, April 5, 2015, with his loving family by his side. He was born in Toledo on August 23, 1922, to the late William G. Bauman Sr. and Edna (Davidson) Bauman. Bill was a graduate of Delta High School in 1940 and was voted Most Valuable Player of his football team the same year.

He served in the Army Air Corps during World War II and was a member of both the Delta American Legion Post 373 and the Delta United Methodist Church. He worked as a tool and die maker for A.P. Parts for 27 years and later from 1984-1987 at MTS Seating in addition to his love of farming. Bill was an avid college basketball and Indy car racing fan.
