Not sure what to say?

To the family a short story. My now 14 year old went to Dr. Bailey for many years. We went there for her 3 year old field trip in preschool, and she feel in love. NOW this was a child up until this time was being given pills before ever making it to the dentist office. After meeting DR.B) and his staff this same child would go running into the office right over to his staff and say (I'M here now). Even though she is seeing Tessa now. She would still go over to see Dr. Bailey's Staff. Thank...

I want to express my sympathy to the family of Dr. Bailey. I am a past patient of both Dr. Eldon Bailey and Dr. Brian Bailey both of whom gave me my first glimpse into the world of Dentistry. In part because of them I am now a practicing Dental Hygienist. Thank you!!!! My prayers are with Dr. Bailey's family in this your time for mourning. God Bless and remember you will all be together again someday.

Eldon was a dear friend many years ago. He was full of laughter, great stories and many jokes. We were all young married couples who "grew up" together. It has been many years since I last saw Eldon but I have thought of him often with fond memories. I am glad that he did not have to suffer any longer than he did. His family was also part of my life and I hope that they are all able to believe that Eldon has found peace.

I'm sad tonight. A great man has died. Eldon was my very first employer. He hired me fresh out of college to work in his dental practice. I was the lowest of the low - a roving dental assistant. That meant I was to "rove" around and clean up everyone else's messes. But I was never happier. Eldon was the most prominent dentist in the state of Michigan. People came from all over the state to have him complete their full mouth reconstructions. I was honored to work with him, in whatever...

My sympathy to Eldon's family. I met Eldon through my son, Kevin Noble during my visits to Midland.I am always encouraged by men like Eldon who are not afraid to speak boldly of our Lord Jesus Christ.I pray he is at peace with our Lord, and one day we will meet again.

Dear Bailey Family,

You have my deepest sympathy for your loss. Eldon was a true friend whom God used to touch my life in a very significant way. He consistently encouraged me in the faith and in being an authentic Christ-follower. He loved and pursued God more than anyone I have ever met, he loved his brothers and sisters in Christ, and he loved his family deeply. I am sorry for your loss, but I take comfort in the fact that Eldon is in the presence of our Lord where he is known...

Jon, It is with great sadness that I learned about the death of your father. Many new of him and his passion for the Lord. My deepest sympathy to you and your family as you mourn his loss but celebrate his life.

HI DR BAILEY FAMILY, I'm a cousin to Dr. Bailey he was a wonderful denist. I remember as a child Dr. Bailey, coming to the chase reunions and he always had a smile on his face. He always had that smile and always explained everything he was doing. I always looked foreward to to seeing him. My parents also had him as their denist. I also remember the day my oldest child went to him she was scared. But he made her feel good when he took her picture and hung it on his board everytime when she...

We’re so sorry to hear about Eldon. He was an exceptional dentist who worked wonders. More than that, he was a very dear friend who loved the Lord with all his heart and had so much to offer.
Eldon truly inspired most everyone with his brilliancy. He could sit with you for hours and never tire of expounding stories, quotes, and “numbers.”
What a joy it must be for him now to be totally pain free. The Angels in Heaven must also be rejoicing to have him there.
And...instead of...
