Ricky Hayden Obituary
He was a huge Dallas Cowboys fan. He loved to play golf and shoot darts. He just enjoyed life. He touched the lives of many people.
Ricky Hayden will be deeply missed. He worked at Super Value in North Pole. He went on to work at K-Mart. When K-Mart closed he went to AIH and became assistant manager. He worked there for many years before his passing. Rickey leaves behind two beautiful daughters, Rickelle Hayden and Elizabeth Hill. Both daughters loved him very much and Ricky's world was all about his daughters.
Rickelle will not be here for his ceremony. She will be taking Ricky's ashes back home to Texas. Elizabeth and her mother (Susan) will be having a Celebration Of Life for Rick at 1 p.m. May 21, 2016, at Northern Lights Freewill Baptist Church, 2365 Richardson Highway North Pole. Please come and share your stories of Rick so Elizabeth can know more about her dad and keep him alive. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Harry and Sally Porter Heart Foundation at Fairbanks Memorial Hospital.

A flood of good memories help shield the grief that i feel right now. Rick was a doer he led by example. Always helpful, and to the point in his work. I have to believe that Gods retirement plan for men like Rick, who never reaped their harvest here are basking in Gods eternal glory.

Rick's ready smile and good cheer made him a joy to be around. Seemed like every other person in the door at AIH knew him from somewhere. This town will miss him for a long time. I am so grateful to have had the honor of knowing him.

I first met Ricky at Super Valu. He was always a straight up, honest, and caring guy. I always enjoyed talking with him. I swear I just saw him at AIH two weeks ago and said hi but quickly as I was late to a meeting; now I wish I gave it atleast 30 seconds rather than the 3 it was. Prayers to his family and my thanks; he will be missed.
