He was born in Butler on Dec. 30, 1953, and was the son to the late George and Lottie (Skal) Hays.
Darrell enjoyed fishing, deer-spotting, music, and singing, but his favorite pastime was spending time around the local airport watching the takeoffs, landings, and interacting with the pilots and plane owners.
Above all else, he loved his family and friends. He was known to always add love and laughter to a room. Nothing made him happier than being with his grandchildren and watching them play sports. He was loved and will be forever missed.

He also is survived by seven siblings and his closest friends, Dave and Darla Snyder.
He was preceded in death by his mother-in-law, Shirley Pickerd, and his siblings, William Hays and Carol Wiles.
