Harold Rudolph Baumann, 83, Wausau, died Monday, June 13, 2011 at the Rennes Health and Rehab Center, Weston.
Harold was born July 16, 1927 in Wausau to the late Rudolph and Emma (Lemke) Baumann. He served his country in the US Army. After meeting Doris Krueger at a dance, they later married on February 5, 1949 in the Town of Wausau. Harold and Doris celebrated 59 wonderful years together prior to her death on April 9, 2008.
