Sandy and Brian and all of your family, Iris will always be Ms. Iris to me. She and my mother, Diddy Dougharty, were such good friends. I remember Ms. Iris popping over to 20th Street for a quick visit. She traveled with us to Phoenix one year and we had a great time. She rode with me in the golf cart to watch the guys play golf. I also can remember staying with Ms. Iris and Ed a few times when we lived across the street from them on Driskill Drive. I will remember her always with a smile on her face. She exuded happiness and you could not help smiling with her. May you all find much strength in the wonderful memories I know that you have of a very lovely lady.

To Mrs. Bailey ‘s family, First of all Mrs. Bailey was a client of mine ,(I’m a hairdresser) . I’ve been in the business almost 50 yrs. . Mrs Bailey was one of my first clients. I often speak of her and wondered how she was. She was a sweet person. You are blessed to have had her so long! May the Lord bless your family with peace during this time....Brenda Oliver

So sorry for your loss. I remember Mrs. Bailey as a very gracious lady. My Mother, Gladys Hammond, was an executive secretary for her husband Ed at Gulf States Utilities Company. I hope memories will bring comfort to her family during this sad time.
