Guestbook

  1. We will always remember Jack as a kind, generous, and friendly man who loved life and enjoyed it to the fullest. We will surely miss him.

  2. Mr. Bays will be missed by everyone who knew him. He was a very caring person. We want to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Leonard & Linda Lawson

  3. I will always hold a special place in my heart for the precious memories of Mr. Jack Bays, who I met at STS after my own father had passed away. I couldn’t get over the resemblance to my dad who died of lung & bone cancer after 3 weeks of being diagnosed in 2005. Mr. Bays was a real gentleman, hard working but a gentle soul, with his firm handshake, and one of the strongest and courageous men I have known who has left a legacy for so many through his dedication to his beautiful family and his business. I feel blessed to have known Mr. Bays and to have visited him at home during his illness. I told him that he gave me the gift of TIME with my own Dad and that he was so much like him. Mr. Bays replied, “Well, I hope I did well”. I said, “Yes, you did, you are a loving example of what a great Father is”. Thank you, Mr. Bays, from the bottom of my heart, for your friendship. My deepest sympathy to Ginny, Lynn, Jim, Laren, Scott, extended family and friends. God’s Peace upon you all.

  4. I worked with Jack on a project in the early 1980s, and always found him a gentleman and a pleasure to work with. I was sorry to hear of his passing.

  5. It was wonderful spending time with Jack. He was kind, considerate, and generous. Most of all he loved Ginny a great deal, and they took time to have fun.

  6. I felt so sad when i saw the passing of Mr. Bays yesterday in the Washington Post.Mr. Bays was a very good man when i worked with him as an aide, until my mother passed and had to go to Ghana.I pray that the Almighty God comfort the family in times like this and may his soul rest in perfect peace.

  7. I am so saddened to hear of Mr. Bays’ passing. What a dear, sweet man; I know he is truly missed. My prayer is for peace and comfort for Mrs. Bays, Lynn and family. “For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” (1 Corinthians 15:22)

  8. Lynn, Laren and all family members, Very sorry for your loss. May you find comfort and peace in the love of your family and friends. Jenny Wilson Sakamoto

  9. Dear Ginny, Lynn and family, I just learned of Jack’s passing and have such fond memories of many good times, too many to enumerate.I always knew a trip to McLean would include some fun with the Bays. I send you all my love and sympathy. Please keep in touch. Much love Vicki

  10. I am saddened to hear of the loss of Jack. I was honored to have worked for him years ago and admired his compassion and consideration for others. My best to Ginny and the family. Mike Baldauf

  11. Ginny, we are saddened by your loss. We pray that God’s love will help ease the pain. We didn’t know Jack well, but we enjoyed the time we spent with the two of you. May our paths cross again in the future. Steve and Nancy are in Florida and sent us the paper with Jack’s obituary. Love and Friendship to you and your family. Your Cousin, Sharlene and Jerry Midkiff

  12. I didn’t know Jack Bays well, but if one judges a person based on the company he keeps, or the legacy he leaves, Jack lived a meaningful life. His involvement in church and community has made a lasting impact on others, as has the quality and integrity that marks the business that continues to proudly bear his name. I am sorry to hear of Jack’s passing and extend my thoughts and condolences to all in his family.

  13. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to you and your family during this sad and difficult time. Gently may God soften the pain and you find comfort in his loving (Ps.34:18) promise. Mr. Bays will be sadly missed.
