June 24, 1952 Halifax Nova Scotia - October 04, 2022

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Harold Philip (Phil) Bailey on October 4, 2022. Phil passed away at home, surrounded by family, after a short, but fierce battle with cancer. Son of Alice (nee McGivney) and Hal (late), husband to Joy (MacIvor), loving father to Sarah (Sam) and James and proud “Pappy” to grandsons Dylan, Matthew, Benjamin and Jaxen.

Phil is survived by siblings Brian (Jeannie), Anne (Wendolyn), Barbara (David), and Alan (Brenda) and predeceased by his sister Mary. He will be fondly remembered by his many nieces and nephews.

Phil was a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for 34 years. In his retirement, he enjoyed puttering around his property, vegetable gardening, hunting, fishing, delivering produce and Maple Syrup to neighbors and spending time with his friends and family.

Phil touched the lives and hearts of many which was abundantly clear in his last days. Phil’s family wishes to thank the many friends for coming by and reaching out to say goodbye and give him comfort. Special thank you to Valerie.

10-4, Phil.

A Celebration of Life for Phil will be announced at a later date
