Thomas "Tom" Lee Bailey

Tom Bailey died in the early hours of October 25, 2014. Born in Ferndale, Michigan, he was the son of the late Louie G. Bailey and Betty J. Gilliam. Tom served proudly and honorably in the United States Coast Guard and was decorated with the "Good Conduct Award" and the U.S. Coast Guard's "Sea Service Ribbon" among others.
