Helmut Bayer, a Retired Truck Driver for White Plains Linen and longtime resident of the area passed away on Friday April 8, 2022 at Garnet Medical Center in Middletown with his family by his side. He was 79. The son of the late Jakob Bayer and Margaretha Kreter Bayer he was born on December 11, 1942 in Kisker-Kischkeer Batschka, Yugloslavia. After proudly serving in the United States Army until 1967 he had since retired from Consolidated Laundry/White Plains Linen. He was the type of guy everyone wanted to be around, always making people laugh and doing whatever he could for others. In his younger years he loved riding horses and that love continued into his elder years with talking with friends and going to the track. He loved to watch the Yankees and Vikings and his TV shows either an old cowboy movie or Castle and NCIS. One of his favorite singers was Heidi Bruhl and he told everyone about her. He mostly took pride in his family and was always driving them crazy with his gibberish talking and making us laugh.
