OBITUARIES


Bryan Baumeister


Bryan Baumeister, age 61, died too young on Aug. 2, 2011, from injuries and complications from a May 25, 2011, motorcycle accident.

Memorial services were held on Aug. 10, 2011, in the Daniels Funeral Home in Albuquerque, NM.

He was cremated and will be taken home to Nebraska at a later date.

Bryan Baumeister was born Nov. 13, 1949, in Butte, to Louis and Alma (Emme) Baumeister.

Bryan graduated from Butte High School in 1968. He received his masters degree from Concordia Seminary in Springfield, IL.

He was a talented artist who specialized in rural scenes. He won second place in his category at the 2010 New Mexico State Fair.

His career spanned several interests over the years. During the past 10 years, he worked in nursing homes and was a passionate advocate for the elderly and their families. He loved life, was curious, loved the freedom of riding his motorcycle and never shied away from trying something new. 

Most recently he was in the process of renovating a 100 year old barn into a living space in his beloved Nebraska. With his death the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers lost their most ardent fan.

He and his wife, Kay, traveled extensively in the US, Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe.

Bryan is survived by his wife, Kay; children, Angela and daughter, Katie; Josh and wife, Jessica, and children Ryan, Brandon, Alyssa and Jaden; Aaron and son, EJ; Yvonne (Elsasser) Baumeister, mother of his children; brother, Mike and wife, Diana; sister-in-law, Joann Baumeister; nephews, Chad and Jason Baumeister; nieces, Christi Orr and Christina Luehrs; and many cousins and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, David in 2009; infant sister Carol; grandparents, William and Lizzie (Mahlendorf) Emme and George and Lizzie (Schreiver) Baumeister.
