August 18, 1947 – December 18, 2021
With broken hearts we said goodbye to Stan on December 18 after a long stay in the hospital. He has left behind the love of his life, Debbie Bailly, daughters Danielle Bailly, Melyssa Bailly (Dale), son Connor Morrison (Robin), sisters Kathryn Bailly (Nick), Rita McArthur (Duncan), and Shelley Ford (Roger), close in-laws Sue Boychuk (Keith), Cindy Reddick- Davidson (Charlie), Bernie Reddick (Sharon), Colleen Bandura (Gary), Tom Reddick (Colleen). Stan had five grandkids he adored: Jocelyn Bailly (Nick), Kailen Olsen, Jack Olsen, Kristopher Derhousoff, and Amanda Derhousoff.
He also leaves behind many cousins, nieces, nephews and close friends he considered family.
Stan is predeceased by his parents Ned Bailly and Lillian Bentson and in-laws Bernie and Gert Reddick, brother-in-law George Reddick and sister-in-law Pat Reddick.
Stan was born in Vancouver, then eventually moved to Kamloops at a young age. In his early 20’s, he studied communications at BCIT, where a teacher told him that he had a “great radio voice!” He began his radio career in Williams Lake which eventually took him to various regions in BC & Alberta before coming back to Kamloops in 1973. Stan worked at the Kamloops Broadcast Center, NL Radio, Adcash (a short stint in repairs), then back to the Broadcast Center where he spent many enjoyable years until his retirement working side by side with his friend and best man Henry Small. Together, they had the greatly admired radio show called “Stan & Hank in the Morning”.
As a passionate music lover, Stan also was a well-recognized event DJ that could always get a crowd up and dancing no matter what the gig was. He was a fun loving, positive person that could play a mean air guitar and drums, partying right along with everyone.
His upbeat and easygoing attitude is forever remembered.
Stan still couldn’t “Get No Satisfaction”, so he’s taken the “Stairway To Heaven” all the way to “Strawberry Fields Forever”.
He is missed more than words can describe.
A party in his honor to celebrate Stan to be determined at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Kidney Foundation would be greatly appreciated.
