For over 64 years, Dick was married to the love of his life, Kathleen "Kay" Scheibel. Dick and Kay raised two sons and worked together running J. A. Scheibel Construction, originally located in Camp Springs, Maryland, now in Huntingtown, Maryland. Retirement brought lots of enjoyment, allowing Dick and Kay to travel and spend more time with their family.

Dick was a member of St. James' Parish in Lothian, Maryland, the former South Gate Lion's Club and the Ocean City Light Tackle Club, where he served as President from 1991 – 1993. Dick was an avid bill fisherman and fished the waters around the world.

Another hobby of Dick's was hunting water fowl in Chestertown, Maryland. This was a special time for him, his sons and grandsons. Those times will always be treasured moments shared together.

Dick is survived by his beloved wife, Kathleen "Kay" Bailey, sons, Charles R. "Rick" Bailey, Jr. and his wife, Kathleen, "Kath" and John R. Bailey and his wife, Jerrie Lynn. He was the devoted Grandfather of Eric A. Bailey, Marianne E. Bailey, Kristen B. Doty, Kaitlin G. Pecina, Robert M. Bailey. He was the proud Great-grandfather of Wyatt, Ellis and Grant Bailey.
