Bill Bailey

Born in Warren, Arkansas, Bill lived an adventurous life across multiple cities and states through an early stint as a radio D.J., finally settling in the D/FW metroplex by utilizing his diverse talents and wearing many hats in a long, illustrious career with KRLD and KWRD “the Word” radio stations. Anyone who crossed his path walked away knowing his signature warm smile and zest-for-life personality. He lived life by a simple motto: Add Value. And he did just that, adding value to the people’s lives around him each day, even following this simple passion into a second career, in his later life, by helping people make end of life plans before it was too late. Bill followed many passions, having a fondness for collecting classic radios,performing and watching card tricks while attending the local magic club and state conventions, experimenting on the perfect cornbread recipe, and simply sipping on a cup of coffee while listening to a favorite broadcast.

Bill is survived by his wife, Linda, his children, Lisa, Corina, James, and Joy, 11 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. He was loved and will be missed. While no plans are currently set, there will be a celebration of life for Bill at a later time. So, Stay Tuned "
