    Nan Bailey was a wonderful, warm and lovely lady by every conceivable measure.💜 It was always a delight to visit with her. And I especially loved when we would go to her house for family dinners. She made us feel very much like she was our Nan when we’d go to see Aunt Regina Bailey and Uncle Bill Bailey in Shoal Harbour. She lived a long and happy life. We loved her and we love her still. Our hearts and minds are with the Baileys at this time 🤗. And we’re grateful and blessed for all our memories over the years with Nan Bailey. God bless her. We will tell the stories. We will always smile, especially when we think of her – and we will always remember her.💐🌺🌻🌼🏵️🌸🌷
