Roy Henry Bauer was born March 27, 1928, near Blue Grass, ND, the son of Andrew and Adelgunda (Ruede) Bauer.

In 1971, Roy started his own plumbing and heating company-Bauer Plumbing & Heating, Inc.-which is now owned by his two sons. He enjoyed camping, hunting, fishing, traveling with family, and sharing his garden of plenty. Roy was a man of few words, with a wonderful personality, who always enjoyed being around others. He was a hardworking, reliable, and trustworthy man who loved his family deeply.
