Mother, Mabel Stroud Bauer and father, James Bauer.
Survived by wife of forty-seven years, Deborah; children Lisa Bourne and Brian (Sarah) Bauer; sister, Rebecca Daugherty and five grandchildren, Jordan Penn, Jacob Penn, Phoenix Bauer, Brynn Bauer and Anna Bauer of Bloomington.
Michael wore many hats in his life. An accomplished guitarist, with an encyclopedic knowledge of hundreds of songs; a black belt in Tae Kwon Do; a precision machinist; skilled woodworker and a great cook: famous for his chili, spaghetti, and meatloaf. He was a steadfast fan of the Cubs and the Bears. Michael touched many lives and lived life to the fullest. His song has ended, but the melody lives on. His final wishes were to be cremated and have no services.
Any memorials may be made to the Midwest Food Bank.
