She often served dishes from her homeland, as well as the “Southern Style” dishes that she quickly learned. Everyone always felt welcomed at her table. Her servant heart was evident as she always made sure your plate was filled before she ever took a bite. She enjoyed crafting, sewing and needlework. Her garden is a masterpiece filled with a wide variety of vegetables, herbs and flowers of every kind. Her warm smile and pleasant personality were contagious to everyone she met. She was preceded in death by her parents and her aunt Pon Shaw. Survivors include her husband of 21 years, Gary Hayes, her brother-in-laws: Jerry Hayes (Debbie Jefcoats), Danny Hayes (Kathy), her sister-in-law, Sandra Farris (David) and a host of nieces and nephews.
