So many memories of Walt!!
Me yelling at him during rebuild for activating a steam header while Gilbert and me were still in the pipe rack. He just smiled and pointed at Jim Brashears!
When Bonnie and me showed up at his house for the very 1st time!
When he was turning a 4 wheeler tire inside out to make a flower pot for me!
When I knocked over a huge candle on the front sidewalk!
When he said "if you get 3 dogs they won't bark anymore"
The one I love most, when he started calling me Ouiser. Every time someone calls me that I'll remember what a cantankerous and loveable old toot he was!!
Miss you already!
Oh Mr. Bailey, I can’t tell you how much of an honor it was to be a part of you and your family’s lives. You have made such a big impact not just on us but for everyone who had the pleasure of getting to know you. You will be forever missed. You are definitely one of our hardest see you laters.
Walt Bailey was truly one in a million. The influences he had on my life will always be a cherished memory. I was honored to work with Walt and have him as my boss. We shared many crossword puzzles. Most of which he said I would make up a word, but it was always right. He will be greatly missed. I value the friendship I’ve had with Walt and Bonnie and family.
