Not sure what to say?

He was an excellent and fair teacher. He was one of those rare teachers who really cared and wanted you to succeed! He made class fun and one I always looked forward to!

Archie has been a good friend for 54 years. I met he and Sue Bailey working on the Sander Levin for Governor campaign in 1970. Archie was the key leader in Genesee County at that time. Later Archie was a key supporter when I was elected to congress in 1974. Archie was, of course, a leader for teachers and public education. And when he entered elective politics he was a great success and a dedicated public servant in Flushing and Genesse County. Archie also helped me get elected governor and ...

What an incredible human being. I was so fortunate to call him friend, and was lucky to have his support in public service. He was creative, compassionate and dedicated to politics and public service. I have create memories which will always make me smile.

He was such a good teacher. What a remarkable life lived! RIP.

Archie Bailey was Vice Principal at Flushing High School during my high school years. Mr. Bailey was responsible for my older brother actually graduating.

Condolences to Mr. Bailey´s family. Mr. Bailey was a wonderful educator and counselor at Flushing High School when I attended school. He was always very understanding and helpful to all the students. Mr. Bailey will be greatly missed by all that knew him.

I am so sorry for everyone's loss. He was vice-principal for a few years while I was at Flushing Senior High and he was always so sweet when I was sent to see him (and it was many, many times) but he inspired me to do my best and to stay in school until I graduated. I did and then I went on to get my nursing degree. Everytime I bumped into him, he always remembered me and asked about my life. I too will miss him dearly but he will always be carried in my heart.
