Gary James Bailey


July 27, 1934 - July 19, 2025

Gratefully, we were each able to express our deep love for Gary when he passed at LGH.

Gary was born in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, and lived in BC since 1960. A resilient man, he had a few careers, laterly as an instructor at BCIT. Always active, he would change his sport in response to his change in abilities. He was a member of the West Van Tennis Club. Gary was a longtime member of the Militia and a LCol CD of the 15th Field Regiment.

Gary was a warm, loving man with an endearing sense of humour. He is survived by his wife, Sigrid, son, Brent, and daughter Kristen (William). Cheerful, despite struggles due to cancer treatment, he had the joy of knowing his granddaughters, Mayla (3) and Riley (1).
