As many others I am in complete shock, at a loss for words to say the least because even that is an understatement. I thank you for all the memories and lessons you have left me with. I will never forget that big huge grin or  goofy laugh of yours, something that has remained the same since I met you in the 7th grade. Later in life I had the opportunity to know you as an adult and as a parent, it was such a blessing to see how much you've grown. I will cherish the talks we had. I will never forget the love you exuded for your sons when you spoke of them. May your soul rest peacefully my friend. Until the day I see you again. 

To the Bailey family, to the many friends and countless loved ones, my prayers and deepest sympathies are with you in this difficult time.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

By Lamaretta Simmons

To the Bailey Family:

No matter how long they have been with us, it is never easy to lose someone you love.  My sympathy and prayers goes out to the Family during your time of need. Yours to keep forever are all the beautiful memories gathered through the years.  May Gods loving-kindness comfort you through this difficult time.  (Psalms 119:50, 76)

My condolences to the family. May the God of all comfort (Psalms 83:18) give you the strength to endure this difficult time.

Life Church Riverside is praying for God to comfort and strengthen your family during this difficult time.

Never in my life have I been at such a loss for words...distance has grown between us over the years but I will always cherish the memories that we made. I am thankful for all of the talks that we had, the laughs that we shared and disagreements that brought us closer together. I am thankful for every movie we watched, meal that we ate and songs that we danced to. Thank you for always being you J Boogie. You are loved and missed.. until I see your beautiful smile again...
