Robert "Bob" Baumann
May 30, 1954 ~ May 30, 2021
Robert “Bob” Baumann passed away on May 30, 2021, on his 67th birthday in Loudoun, VA. His friendly smile and handshake brought joy to those around him, even in his last days.
Born in Virginia to a Navy family, Bob grew up in Hawaii and San Diego. He enjoyed life and loved model airplanes and rockets. A passionate person, after graduating from Point Loma High School in 1972 he followed his dreams where they led him, hitch-hiking across the country to view the total eclipse in Cap-Chat Quebec, across the Atlantic where he spent time living in Paris. He then joined the Army and was introduced to computers, and ultimately to Honeywell where he met his wife Mary. As a support consultant, after his first phone call with Mary to help find and fix a bug, he knew he wanted to get to know her better. He was sent to Belgium as an analyst where he and Mary wed in 1979 before returning to The United States.
A long-time resident of Northern Virginia during his 41-year marriage to Mary, his career focused on creating custom software solutions and helping others with their technology needs through his company Computerwise Consulting Services. Together they had twin boys: Edward and Jonathan. Also gracing their household were 1 dog, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and countless fish and birds. During their time in Virginia, they attended McLean Presbyterian Church where Bob served as a Deacon and helped start its ministry to the elderly in nursing homes.
Bob is survived by his wife Mary, sons Edward and Jonathan, 3 grandchildren, and his siblings Scott, Peter, Bruce, and Debra.
A memorial service will be held at McLean Presbyterian Church, 1020 Balls Hill Rd, McLean, VA 22101 on June 4, 2021 at 1:00 pm.
