Mr. Blake Bryant Bailey of Kilgore, Texas, died of natural causes while on assignment evaluating storm damage in Michigan. He was born to Blake Henry Bailey and Eddie Bailey Brown.

He graduated from Henderson High School in 1988 where he lettered in football. He graduated from Baylor University in 1994 with a BBA and later graduated from Texas State University in 2005 with a degree in Manufacturing Engineering, with a duel major in mathematics.

Blake chose the path least traveled and spent much of his adult life in South and Central America. His residence was a 72’ Morgan sailboat. He walked the beaches and observed sea turtles as they came to shore to lay eggs. He was a writer and artist and an inspiration to all who knew him for his fearless, yet gentle and spiritual approach to life. Members of his extended family and friends from around the world feel the emptiness left behind with his departure.
