Bill, John, Martha and families,
Your father was one of a kind. He was thoughtful, always positive, and always had a kind word to say. I missed him stopping in the deli in Adrian after selling the Round Lake House.
My prayers are with all of you during this time, but remember all the good he got to do before leaving. God bless all of you.

The world needs more individuals like Doc Bay. Caring, giving, active, delightful, kind... not enough adjectives... He represents what we should all strive to be and do with our lives. He and his service to others will be missed.
