Franklin DeLano “FD” Baumhoer, 80, of Westphalia, passed away Tuesday, January 25, 2022, at Capital Region Medical Center.
He was born January 13, 1942, in Folk on the family farm, to Anton S. and Martha E. (Heckman) Baumhoer.
FD served his country in the United States Army in 1964-1965 at Fort Story and Fort Eustis, in Virginia, and Okinawa, Japan, working in transportation, unloading the cargo ships.
He was married on April 8, 1967, in Jefferson City to Patsy Lee Reed Feltrop, who preceded him in death on August 25, 2019.
