Mr. Hayes was born on May 1, 1933, in Salt River and was a son of Joseph and Dora Hayes. He was a Korean War Army veteran and paratrooper and later was a farm irrigator. He liked going to the Elderly Center in District 5 to watch TV, play pool and hang out and was a member of Ira H. Hayes American Legion Post in Sacaton. One of his last wishes was to jump out of a plane, but his daughter did it for him because of his age. He enjoyed spending time with his family and always had Sunday dinner at his house.
