Nolton Bailey Obituary
September 21, 1951 – October 24, 2010
Nolton "Butch" Bailey, Jr. passed from this life Sunday, October 24, 2010 at Teche Regional Medical Center surrounded by his family.
"Butch" as he was known was a loving son, father, grandfather and friend who will be sadly missed by all. A hard worker all his life was mostly involved with water, working on boats and later as a retailer at Bailey's Basin Seafood. He greeted everyone with a smile and enjoyed a good laugh. He would sometimes entertain his family with his harmonica. "Butch" was a die-hard Saints and LSU fan and lived to see the "Super Bowl" of a lifetime. His dog "Sugar" benefited greatly from his love of animals.
Butch is survived by his daughters Rochelle "Shelley" Suire and her husband Travis; Summer Bailey-Brown and her husband Adam; his parents PT and Yvonne Bailey; a sister Deborah Bailey and her husband Neil Fears; a granddaughter Sydney Bassa; his fiancee Toni Lunsford; Sherry Bailey, the mother of his children; his aunt Virgie Noble; his uncles Wilson Bailey, Dub Noble, Max Thibodeaux, Jr. and his dog "Sugar".
He is preceded in death by his grandparents Rudolph and Aurelia Bailey and Max and Gertie Thibodeaux.
Visitation at Holy Cross Catholic Church will begin Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. until 11:00 a.m. A mass of Christian burial will be at 11:00 a.m.

Dear Friends,
I happened to be checking out the Review online and noticed Butch's obituary.
We are so sorry to note his passing. Our best to all your family. We will always remember him and his willingness to deliver the best crab meat in South Louisiana.

Mr PT & Family, I am sorry hear of your loss. What a nice person Butch was. I remembered when I brought my Indian Bonnet monkey to show Devin to him. He laughed and said that Devin looked like Eric. I disagreed saying Devin was cuter and Butch busted out laughing then picked at Eric about it. :) Butch was well liked by all of us and will be missed just as much as we liked him. Our world has really lost a beautiful person with a good heart. Butch was one of the few down to earth people left. I will keep you and yours in my prayers. May God help you threw this hard sad time and bring you some peace of mind somehow threw the darkness of this hour.
