Walter H. Baumann, age 98, of Oshkosh, formerly of Sheboygan died peacefully in his sleep on July 30. 1999. Born on Dec. 22, 1900, in Sheboygan, he was a son of the late Henry and Karolina (Rank) Baumann. On June 13, 1929, he married Doris Fenner at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Sheboygan. She preceded him in death on July 6, 1988.
