Doug Baur, 80, born and raised in Erie, most recently residing in Lawrence, KS, died peacefully on Sunday, May 30, 2021 in Lawrence after a long struggle with Alzheimer's. He is survived by his wife of almost 57 years, Suzanne ("Sue") Plummer Baur; daughter Cynthia Gibson of Greenville, SC; and daughter Christie Peterson, son-in-law Charles Peterson, and granddaughters Zoe and Kya Peterson, all of Oskaloosa, KS.
