Omaha – Mervin Dean Baumann was born on December 1, 1928, to William and Anna (Lauenstein) Baumann in Sutton, NE. He was welcomed into God’s family on December 30, 1928, through the Sacrament of Holy Baptism. He was confirmed in the Lutheran faith in 1942, at Trinity Lutheran Church, Grafton, NE.

On August 22, 1964, Merv married Sharon Lee Becker from Stewart, MN. They farmed and made their home near Sutton. Their marriage was blessed with four children: Jon (Colleen) of Plymouth, MI; Lisa (Jeff) of Dallas, TX; David of Omaha, NE; and Amy (Matt) of Dallas, TX. A Christian education for his children was a priority in Merv and Sharon’s life.
Upon retirement in December, 1998, Merv and Sharon moved to Omaha. Church activities and a social life with many friends led to a very happy retirement.
