With heavy hearts, we regret to announce the loss of one of our beloved employees and members of the CJ’s family, Mike Bailey.
The passing of an employee is never easy, but losing someone who became so much more than a coworker is especially difficult. Mike was a familiar face at CJ’s and someone who left an impression on everyone who had the opportunity to know him.
There are some people who come into your workplace as employees and, somewhere along the way, become family. Mike was one of those people.
Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with Mike’s family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time. We are grateful for the memories, the laughs, the lessons, and the time we were fortunate enough to share with him.
CJ’s won’t quite be the same without you, Mike. You will be deeply missed, forever remembered, and always considered a part of our family.
In honor of Mike’s passing, CJ’s Bar & Grille will be donating 50% of all sales to Mike’s family to help support them during this incredibly difficult time. We will also be holding a Celebration of Life for Mike at CJ’s Bar & Grille on Wednesday, September 16th at 5:00 PM.
Mike was more than an employee—he was a friend, and a special part of the CJ’s family. We invite everyone who knew and loved Mike to join us as we come together to share memories, celebrate his life, and honor the impact he had on so many of us.
We will also be accepting donations to help Mike’s family with the costs associated with honoring his final wishes. Any amount of support is deeply appreciated.
Please join us as we come together as a community to remember Mike, support his family, and give him the send-off he deserves.

Rest easy, Mike. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. ❤️
