I will always remember him as my cousin Jimmy. The one with the grin and the laughing eyes. I was looking at pictures of him and Cecil Don when they were kids just last month.
To the Children of Jim Bailey: I send my sincerest sympathy for your loss of your Dad. I remember you Jeff, Trag & Debbie, but I'm sure you don't remember me. It's been a long time since I've seen any of you & you were quite young. I was friends with your Mom "Trish" since we were 10 years old & through our high school years & spent lots of time together. We visited a few times @ Bettye & Cecil's lake house @ Towakanii. I also knew your Grandparents Francis & Charles Gregory, & your uncles Cecil & Mike. After your parents divorced & your Mom remarried & moved away we lost touch. I never saw her again but have thought of her so many times. I did see Jim from time to time @ our HS reunions & we once ran into each other while shopping in Dallas. The last time I saw your Dad was @ our 50th HS reunion in 2010. Jim had recently had surgery & we only visited briefly before he had to leave. He mentioned all of you & we had a few laughs over "old times". I remember your Dad most for his ready smile & quick sense of humor. I would love to hear of your Mom. If any of you had a chance to drop me a line at mariecen@embarqmail.com I would be delighted. Once again my sincerest regrets for your loss. I know how hard it is to lose a parent & my thoughts & prayers are with you all. kindest regards, Marie (Allen) Howard email: mariecen@embarqmail.com

Jim was more than our property manager at Pelletier Properties. He was family. He was loved and will be greatly missed.
I just today found out my friend JB is gone. What a sad day. The best compliment I can pay him is he was my friend. He was supporting whether I was having he was supporting whether I was having a boy downs ups or downs. Rest in peace my friend. My world is a little less happy for my loss. The one saving grace and sunny as I had a chance to be The one saving grace is he is reunited with his beloved Wilma, whom I know he missed terribly. JB, I miss you and I look forward to the day when I will have the opportunity to see you again.
