The Bays Kids in 1925. Nova Henry (14), Everett Leo (8), Frank Garland (1), and Julia Lucile (16). From the Photo Album of Lucile Bays Bradley.

"Henry" was idolized by his brothers, Everett and Frank. And just as much from his sister, Lucile.

"He was every bit a family man," recalled his brother, Everett Bays.

"One of the many qualities I most admired about Henry was the admiration and love he had for his children.... and he certainly had alot of them. Each one felt more loved than any other." -- Everett Bays July 1981
