Shawn Bailey Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Bernhardt Funeral Home - Ellijay on Mar. 5, 2026.
Shawn Curtis Bailey also known as Wolf-Man, Wolfie, father, and son has unexpectedly passed away on the morning of February 3rd 2026.

Born on September 9, 1979 he was 46 years old. He lived an incredible, adventurous life that was full of family and unforgettable experiences. His light, and big heart touched countless that will be changed forever because of his influence, and the roles of a father figure he played in so many lives. Shawn Bailey was more than just the struggles he faced. He fought hard to give every life he touched a helping hand, he gave with the full effort he could and all with a smile on his face. He enjoyed the simple things in life, and the many adventures he led. From long walks, and long talks he will be missed more than he ever knew he would.

He is survived by his son Trevon Bailey, daughter Phoenix Bailey, fiance Mickey Nelson, mother Rita Bailey, and grandson Oliver Bailey, grand daughter Olivia Dixon and so very many people that became his family over the years.
He will always be loved and never forgotten. His wisdom, and love will live on in all of our hearts. We love you.

Bernhardt Funeral Home was in charge of these arrangements.
