We are gathered here today to remember the life and legacy of Andre Bailey, who was born on December 12, 1964, in the Bronx, New York. He passed away on April 16, 2024, after a battle with kidney failure.
Andre, also known as "Dre," was the beloved son of Erroll Bailey and Linda Williams. He was married to Cynthia for 4 years and together they raised three wonderful children: Valencia, Andrea, and Cynia. His family expanded to include 8 grandchildren, who brought him endless joy.
Andre attended Park West High School and graduated in 1982. He went on to work as a postal worker, where he made many friends and touched the lives of those around him with his contagious laughter and kind heart.
Outside of work, Andre had a few passions that brought him immense joy. He was known for dressing fly and always looking sharp, no matter the occasion. He also had a knack for helping out his family whenever they needed him, whether it was with a household project or just being a listening ear.
Andre leaves behind his siblings Errol Bailey jr William Bailey Monique Bailey Tiffany Bailey(Hernandez) Taffany Bailey and John Bailey as well as a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins who will miss him dearly.
Although we mourn the loss of Andre, we choose to remember him with laughter and fond memories. He will forever hold a special place in our hearts, and his spirit will live on in the love he shared with his family and friends.
Don't grieve for me, for now I;m free, I'm following the path GOD laid for me, I took his hand when I heard him call, I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, love, work and play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found that place at the close of the day. If my parting has left a void,. Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss: Ah yes, these things, I took will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savoured much: good friends, good times, a loved ones touch. Perhaps my time seems all to brief: Don't lengthen it now with undo grief Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free
