Office: Herbert retired from the Yolo County Health Department.
Personality: He had a liberal medical personality and lived a healthy active life.
He had many friends in Davis and they are welcome to contribute to this page.
Bauer was 99 when he was featured in the short documentary Old People Driving. From the website: "The film follows Herbert as he takes his last drive, hands over his keys and comes to terms with the reality of life without a car."

May we all live so well so long. —CovertProfessor
