George A. Baum
A memorial service will be held on Friday, October 26th, at 2:30 p.m. at Bellingham Covenant Church.
George grew up in Whitesboro, Texas. George and his wife Ginny moved to Washington state in 1986. George worked most of his life in the aircraft industry, as a machinist, and a tooling inspector.
George is survived by his wife of 42 years, Virginia (Ginny) Cederholm Baum, daughters, Darla Baker and Dana Scott, and grandchildren Jessica, Mason, Matthew, Valerie, Henry, and Dorothy, and two great grandchildren, Ethan and Sophia.
George loved nature, watching birds, trees, gardening and singing and listening to music. Most of all George loves Jesus.
Thank you to Whatcom Hospice for their kind and supportive care during this long struggle with dementia.
Memories
From Susan Keefer
I will always remember Uncle George weeding the flower box in the front yard of our home in Marysville whenever he and Ginny came to visit. One time, I tried to help him and he stopped me by saying, "Don't pick that! That's rhubarb and it takes a while to grow." The following summer my rhubarb started producing stalks. I also remember many, many Sunday suppers with Ginny and George. We would be so full that George and I would take a walk after dinner. To this day, whenever I am in a garden or taking a walk, I think of George. He was, perhaps, my favorite walking partner. From this day forward, I will always picture George weeding and mapping out the best walking paths in heaven.
