Daniel Edgar Hayes Jr.

Danny Hayes, a devout Christian, passed away on October 1st at the age of 73. Born in February 1950, he lived a life defined by love, faith, and work. Danny leaves behind a legacy of kindness that will forever resonate in the hearts of those who knew him.

For 47 years, Danny shared a loving marriage with his beloved wife, Judy, a partnership characterized by unwavering support and shared values. Together, they raised a daughter and a son. Danny's four grandchildren were the light of his life, and he cherished every moment spent with them.

As a self-employed individual, Danny's work ethic was exemplary. He approached his profession with dedication and integrity, earning the respect and trust of those he served. His enjoyment of sales, building things with his hands and near encyclopedic knowledge of how to get across the country were factors that helped him be successful.

Danny was preceded in death by his parents, Daniel Hayes Sr. and Lillie Hayes. Yet, he found solace in his faith, which remained a cornerstone of his life. His Christian values guided him through both joyous and challenging times, inspiring those around him.

He is survived by his wife Judy, Daughter Jennifer, Son-in-law Michael, Four grandchildren Landon, Madi, Monty , and Daisy, and his son Daniel.

In the wake of his passing, Danny Hayes leaves behind a family and community who will forever remember his kindness, wisdom, and the love he shared. His memory will be cherished as a beacon of light, reminding us all of the importance of faith, family, and love.

A Memorial Service will be held on Wednesday, October 18, 2023 at 1:00 pm at Olive Baptist Church Warrington Campus 103 W. Winthrop Ave, Pensacola, FL 32507.
