Mr. and Mrs. Lyle, Julie, Shanna and Bailey's children,

Bailey and I obviously share our love for nature and the outdoors. I will think of him everytime I cross a river or visit the creek on my property, or see a deer. (Must be our Indian heritage??) His ashes were spread on the Tennessee River, a place we enjoyed with our family for many years.
I love you, baby brother. Julie (JuJu)

You are all in our thoughts and prayers. I have the best memories of Bailey when we were young! My trips to Decatur with the family (Bailey is my cousin- our dads are twins!) still make me smile when I think of them. Bailey and I (except for when he would bounce me OFF the trampoline!Ha!) had so much fun, and Uncle Bill and Wynelle were so good to all of us. Bailey didn't have a shy bone in his body, and life was always such an adventure to him. I will always picture him laughing in the back yard, and I will keep those childhood memories close.

I haven't seen Bailey since the day's of highschool. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Mr. & Mrs. Lyle whom I always cared deeply for. Julie and Bailey's surving wife and children. It's a great loss. Bailey was always quite the outgoing individual that never seemed to meet a stranger. He will be greatly missed.
