Bayliss was a good man. He was my father's boss at Sealtest on Norfolk St. I also was under him in the plant, although I worked thru a temp agency since my dad worked in accounting, and they couldn't hire me because of family rule. I always thought of Bayliss as a good man. I am sure you will miss him. My condolences to the family.

Bay was always thinking about others, always wanting to know how I was doing and asking about members of my family. He was truly a great guy and wonderful friend. I just wish I had seen more of him and his great laugh and smile! God Bless you Bayliss!!
