By: Wray | H.R. No. 184 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The family and friends of Kenneth James Hayes of | ||
Malakoff suffered an immeasurable loss with his death in November | ||
2018 at the age of 60; and | ||
WHEREAS, The son of Kermitt Hayes and Olene Thomas, Ken Hayes | ||
was born in Dallas on August 9, 1958, and he grew up in western | ||
Henderson County with three siblings, Jimmy, Karl, and Pamela; he | ||
worked for Texas Utilities Mining near Fairfield for nearly a | ||
quarter century before returning to Henderson County in the late | ||
1990s to found and operate Hayes & Company Custom Homes; and | ||
WHEREAS, Mr. Hayes ably served his fellow citizens as | ||
Henderson County Commissioner for Precinct No. 1 from his | ||
inauguration in 2017 until his passing; his extensive record of | ||
public service further included his positions on the boards of the | ||
Henderson County Fair, Post Oak Cemetery, Trinity-Neches Soil and | ||
Water Conservation District, and Henderson County Livestock Show, | ||
as well as his membership on the Malakoff Independent School | ||
District school board, Go Texan Scholarship Committee, and the | ||
Henderson County Heifer Committee; moreover, he was a valued | ||
congregant of the First Baptist Church of Malakoff; and | ||
WHEREAS, In all his endeavors, Mr. Hayes enjoyed the love and | ||
support of his wife, Joyce, and he took great pride in his children, | ||
Kristi, Josh, Jenni, and Katie; with the passing years he had the | ||
pleasure of seeing his family grow to include 10 grandchildren, | ||
Megan, Allie, Kyler, Paige, Kinleigh, Loden, Lukas, Seth, Ady, and | ||
Jace; and | ||
WHEREAS, While Ken Hayes's passing has deprived the Henderson | ||
County community of one of its most admired leaders, those he leaves | ||
behind will continue to find inspiration in his many | ||
accomplishments; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the life of Kenneth James Hayes | ||
and extend sincere sympathy to all who mourn his passing; and, be it | ||
further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of | ||
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Ken Hayes. |
