To the Hayes family, I send my thoughts, love, and prayers to you as you are faced with the loss of your loved one. It brought me joy to see him come in for the veteran's day assembly at SHS. He was so distinguished and a true soldier. I remember Atrell at his side as she escorted him in. I know of the love that is in your family, and I wish you peace, and good memories to fill your days until you are able to be with him again.

Was sad to see this obituary. My husband Bill was in charge of the jail when Mr Hayes was hired and commented about his work ethic and willingness to do whatever was needed in those early days to get the job done and the inmates and staff fed.
My husband has been gone since 2000 so I am sending both his and my condolences to your family.##imported-begin##colleen regan##imported-end##
To My Second Family; my heart goes out to each and every one of you. Mr. Hayes is a wonderful man and always will be. I have been apart of his life for 42 years and hold fond memories forever. I will always rembember my name he called me "Lym"... My heart is heavy as I know yours is too, but I know that my parents are holding him close as we speak. When my father passed away 10/2/07 he had a poem which he requested, it reads like this:
"He Called for Me"
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free, I'm following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard His Call, I turned my face and left it all. I coul not stay another day - To laugh, to love, to work, or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I've ceased my toil at the end of the day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with a remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah, yes, these things I too shall miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you all the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much; Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief, Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and celebrate with me, My time has come; He called for me... ~Anonymous
