My sympathies go out to the Whole entire Bailey Family:
When I was growing up, one day I decided to ask my mom why do people die? She responded and told me, because there wasn't enough room for the people that were already here, for the new babies that came into this world.
I said to her but mom how does that effect us, no one lives in our house. But because I didn't understand death, it didn't make sense to me.
When I got older I understood it but I didn't think it was fair, I thought it was cruel. If you've never lost someone, you don't know the pain one endures.
Love is the Greatest Gift God has ever given anyone. Cherish the ones you have, enjoy them, be there for them, and most of all believe in your whole heart of hearts. Lorraine be Strong, God has many plans left for you. Your husband was the Greatest man who loved his family with his whole heart and soul. He blessed many lives, your a lucky gal.
I Love You,
Delma Balsamo

Lorraine and family, Please accept our sympathy at Howie's passing. Don and I wish we were able to be there for you but we know you won't be alone. I wish you both had been able to stop and see us in NC. One thing for sure, Howie always made us laugh. He was always a lot of fun.

To me; a father, a friend, a mentor, a strong man, head of the family, a smart remark, always humor, a warm smile and best bear hugs. I was blessed to have him in my life for 25 years and my daughters blessed to have such an amazing grampy. He has left his legacy with those who loved him and it will carry on. He is loved and deeply missed.
