James Maxwell Bays

I was so sad to hear the announcement by Charlie Oliver at my Aberdeen Rotary meeting today that Mr. Bays had passed away. The community of Aberdeen and all who ever met Mr. Bays will miss him greatly. He was always the kindest of all gentlemen. What a pleasure it was to do business with him or just to talk. On behalf of myself and Mercantile County Bank I would like to express our deepest sympathy to his wife Kay and his loving family. May they gain strength from the knowledge that Mr. Bays was truly an Aberdeen treasure that made a lasting impact on all he met.

I would like to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers, and express the Rotary Club of Aberdeen's deepest sympathy on the death of Past President 1973-1974, James M. Bays. Sincerely, Jim Lindsey Executive Secretary Rotary Club of Aberdeen, Maryland

To Kay and family: Phil and I were extremely sad to read the news in today's Aegis of Mr. Bays passing. He was a true gentleman and I know he will be truly missed by his wonderful family. Our deepest sympathy to each of you. God bless. Barbara Nevin

Dear Kay and Family, so sorry to hear about the passing of James. Our prays and thoughts are with you at the time of your loss. Take care and keep in touch. Janie and Charlie

With fond memories of a good friend.
