We are saddened to announce the death of Stephen Howard, owner of our company
A fully qualified Civil Engineer by profession Stephen became Technical Director and was part of a formidable Operations Management Team which also included Ceri Davies (Production Director) and Nigel Mattfield (Purchasing Director). Under the stewardship of the two Howard brothers the company grew to become the household name it is today and helped establish Bailey as the UKs favourite leisure vehicle brand.
Stephens’ two eldest sons, first Nick and then Simon both joined the business in the 1990s and eventually took over the running of the company. Stephen remained a company Director until very recently and continued to show a keen interest in all things Bailey.
Stephen would have been 82 this week. He was a much-loved Husband to Valerie (his wife of 60 years); Father to Simon, Nick & Robert; Grandad to Juliet, Matthew, Henry, Tamsin, Alfie, Benjamin, Georgina, Evelyn, Megan and Huw plus, of course, best friend to Berkeley the family Labrador.
Our thoughts are with Stephen’s family and friends at this difficult time.
