When I first met Uli as a student, he struck me as exceptionally kind and open. He was such fun to talk with at conferences. My deep condolences to his family. --Sabine Lammers, Indiana University
This memorial website was created in the memory of my beloved husband, Ulrich Baur who was born on May 24, 1957 and passed away much too soon on November 25, 2010. I miss him every day and will remember him forever.

Dear Yvonne, The loss of Ulrich is very sudden and saddening. I knew him these past couple of years although that time now feels much too short. He was a wonderful person who was so easy to talk. He was very cheerful and encouraging and will definitely be sorely missed. Please accept my sincere condolences.

Dear Yvonne,
My thoughts go out to you in this difficult time. Uli was not only a great physicist, but had a terrific sense of humor and a great outlook on life. I know he treasured his vacations with you. (I remember asking him to referee a paper once, and getting an email back from the vicinity of the Vermilion Cliffs...) We all will surely miss him. -Lance

Dear Yvonne, my deepest condolences for this great loss. As it's clear from this memorial, Uli had truly many many friends! it was impossible not to be charmed by his personality, where scientific knowledge and rigor matched his candor, joy and optimism. We first met I believe back in '83 in Munich, and I have been honored by his friendship ever since. I will miss him.

My deepest condolences to Uli's family for this tragic loss.
I vividly remember Uli from my time at Fermilab, where we used to talk about physics and other things and to go out for dinner in the evening. His dedication to physics, his friendly and welcoming personality, his exceptionally kind and humorous character have left a deep impression on me, which I will never forget.

He was like a light bulb coming into any room.
The whole place lit up. On our last meeting, this Spring, he greeted me with a memory of my own children from 25 years ago. How many physicists will do that! He was better than the theorists: he was a great human being.

To all that have offered their condelensces, the Baur family sincerely appreciates the outpouring of love and remembrances for Uli. It is hard to find the words to describe this loss, so your words of support are most welcome. Uli will be dearly missed but fondly remembered as a bright spot in his profession and the world of education, but most importantly as a son, husband, and cousin to us.

Ulrich Baur was my first diploma student, and later
ph. d. -student at the university in Munich. He finished his ph.d. in 1985. After 1987 he lived in my apartment in Ferny, while working at CERN. During the years I was in close contact with him. For me it is difficult to believe that he does not
live anymore. We were good friends, and I will miss him.

Great loss in every sense. Uli was a fatherly figure for junior members of the HEPCOS group in Buffalo. His vision actually lead to creation of the HEPCOS group. He always offered his help, even when I did not ask for it. Always cheerful and smiling. He will be truly missed.

Dearest Yvonne, We send you our deepest sympathy. For 25 years we have enjoyed Uli's jovial, down-to-earth personality during his many social visits to our home. One lasting impression will be his recent visit in October when he so happily and proudly updated us on your shared interest in travel photography. Uli will continue to live on in our fondest memories. Carl and Cindy Albright

Uli was very special as a scientist and as a person. He was very approachable whenever he shared his deep knowledge of electroweak physics, and he was an excellent person to talk to about many other things that younger theorists need to know to stand better on their feet. He will be remembered and missed with great appreciation. With deepest sympathies, Pavel Nadolsky (SMU)

I am stunned and saddened by this loss. I met Uli in 1987 and our careers have intertwined since, including our time together in Phenoland. In addition to his science, I will remember all the good times - the dinners, the jokes, smuggling me into France, getting pickled on my 30th birthday. He will be greatly missed and I raise a glass of Sterling Cabernet in his honor.

13 Jahre ist es nun schon her seit Ulrich viel zu früh von uns gegangen ist. Es ist schade das er nicht miterleben konnte wie seine Nichte aufwächst und sie selbst war noch zu klein um sich an ihn erinnern zu können. Auch ich kannte ihn nur eine kurze Zeit. Aber diese kurze Zeit hat schon ausgereicht um zu erkennen was für ein herzlicher und liebevoller Mensch er war und wie glücklich meine Schwester war ihn gefunden zu haben.

Uli was such a bright light in my life. It was always wonderful to run into
him unexpectedly at Fermilab--- we would talk about all kinds of things. He
was gracious, broad in knowledge, and thoughtful.
Uli also played an important role for me in my work on the W, Z, and top, and in developing signature-based searches. There have been several wonderful theorists who I trust to respond in a deep way to my often poorly-formulated questions. Uli instinctively understood what was troubling me, even though I myself couldn't.

Stairway to Heaven
If tears could build a stairway
And memories a lane
I would walk right up to Heaven
And bring you back again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say "Goodbye"
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why
My heart still aches with sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to love you
No one can ever know
But now I know you want me
To mourn for you no more;
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much more is store
Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today-
A hollowed place within my heart
Is where you'll always stay

The Deep Blue Sea
Come along, come with me,
Take a dive in the deep blue sea.
Put on your gear, let's explore
All the way to the ocean floor!
See that snail wrapped in curls?
Look! An oyster wearing pearls!
Watch the octopus oh so dark,
But don't you dare to pet the shark!
Dive on down, seaward bound,
Motion in the ocean is all around!
Dive on down, seaward bound,
Motion in the ocean is all around!
Now we're very far below,
The lantern fish are all aglow.
Is that a tiny shock you feel?
You just met an electric eel!
Giant blue whales start to stir,
Bigger than dinosaurs ever were!
Wave good-bye to the squid and sponge,
This is the end of our deep-sea plunge!
Dive on down, seaward bound,
Motion in the ocean is all around!
Dive on down, seaward bound,
Motion in the ocean is all around!

I remember how excited Uli got, after I showed him my pictures I took while I was snorkeling. He wanted to see this wonderful world by himself. I taught him how to snorkel and after a while he really liked it. He could see by himself what a wonderful underwater world was waiting for him to explore. And he was so excited to see his first ray in the shallow water, it was almost floating towards him.
Honey, I miss you so much and you left a big big hole in my heart. It hurts so much to be alone. You were my everything, my soulmate, you brightened my day with your presense. Your laugh was so catching. There are so many things I wanted to tell you, but now you're gone. I don't know how to live without you. In loving memory,

In October 2006 a tremendous early snowstorm hit Buffalo, NY. Two feet of heavy snow fell on trees that were still fully in leaf, knocking out electrical power in the area for a full week. For a few days during this unusual event, Ulrich stayed at our house. With his quiet good cheer and wry humor, he seemed to be everywhere, helping us to shovel the heavy snow and clear branches, and washing dishes after meals. In the evenings, we all joked and told stories by candlelight; he quietly befriended our old dog. This is how I really came to know Ulrich.
Yvonne and Baur family, we are so very sorry for your loss. We miss Ulrich very much.
