Michael Patrick Hays

The death of Mike was so so wrong, so unfair. His family have educated me just how deprived how unfortunate I was to have never got to know him or call him my friend.
I was born the same year of a1970 so am very aware how cruel life has been to take him away when he still had so much to give. His family still never stop giving that love, affection, warmth and personality but it still misses Michael giving the same wonders to the world.
My thoughts are with you ALL and my love...

They always say that when you meet someone, that first impressions are something that you will always remember about that person.

My sister Rhonda and I met Mike at Flordia Hospital in the Nerological Intensive Care Unit when my sister (whom was a resident of Florida) suffered a stroke.

We had just driven all night from WV, which was a 13 hour trip. He met us in the hallway and introduced himself. He explained to us that our sister was on life support and prepared us for...

I met Mike through Kaye, and only had a few opportunities to spend time with them, together. This is what I witnessed, as someone on the periphery... a being of bright and enthusiastic light energy... a lover of laughter, life, and Kaye... a passionate and caring member of our community. He was clearly a healer and a torch bearer. His light is not dimmed by his transition from form to pure energy. He can be seen in the light in the eyes of those who love him... lifted by laughter and...

Mr & Mrs Hays,
No parent should have to say good bye to a child forever. My heart truly breaks for you both. Mike was clearly a much loved man; evidence of the great job you did raising him. Peace and love to you both.

Kaye,
My memories of Mike are mainly from junior high and high school. He was a great friend; funny and smart. I could see how much he loved you and how much he loved being in your presence. He left us too soon. He will be greatly missed.

Though we only knew Mike for such a short time his memory will be with us for the rest of our days .The sorrow of his passing will be felt by us for years to come .Our thoughts are with our daughter Kaye and all of Mikes family .Rest in Peace Mike .

To Tim and Patty. Never met Mike but met the grand children and love Tim and Patty Hays. I am so sorry for the loss of your child. Can't imagine the pain in your heart. If you need anything, I'm there for you.

Tim and Patty, so sorry for your loss. It is never easy to lose a loved one but even worse when you lose a child. It's not right. A parent should not have to bury a child. We lost Melissa in March of this year so I know what you are going through. Love you, just trust the Lord to help ease the pain and heartache.
