MICHAEL BAILEY Obituary
BAILEY
Aug. 11, 1962 – Apr. 10, 2025
Michael Brent Bailey passed into eternity on April 10, 2025, after a lengthy illness.
Michael was preceded in death by his father, Clyde Ray Bailey Sr.; stepfather, Boyd Wilson; maternal grandparents, Edwin and Rhoda Gore; paternal grandparents, Clarence and Iva Bailey; uncle, Ross Gore; and his beloved dog, Allie.
Michael is survived by his wife, Sylvia; son, David (Natalie); grandchildren, Neve and Nolan; mother, Jane Wilson; stepmother, Betty Bailey; brother, Clyde Ray Bailey Jr.; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Michael was born in El Centro, California, grew up in Imperial and attended Imperial High School. Shortly after graduation, he joined the Air Force and was stationed in Greece until his last duty station in Las Vegas, NV, at Nellis AFB. After discharge, he continued to work on base at the test site, where he was employed by several Defense Contractors over the years.
Michael later retired and purchased a Home Inspection franchise (NPI), obtained his contractor's license and started his home restoration business.
Michael was a hardworking man who loved his family. We are heartbroken that he left us so soon, but rest in the knowledge that we will all meet again in heaven.
Services were private, according to his wishes.

Rest in peace brother! So many great memories flashed through my mind as I read this. Like the time you guys moved back from Tucson? and I was waiting at the new house as you pulled in.
Concert weekend in LA when we saw Aerosmith and others for the first time, Van Zandt trying to stop us from joining the already in progress graduation procession because we were late. The infamous cafeteria food fight...I am glad that we were able to connect a couple of times over the last 20 years to catch up when we were in Vegas.
Love you buddy.
