A true nature lover, Hayes looked forward to winter bringing cold temperatures and snow. He was most at peace while fishing, hiking, and shooting at an outdoor range. He enjoyed spending time at our family camp in Kingston, MS. A lover of animals, Hayes enjoyed caring for the wide variety of animals living in our home.
Hayes loved and played all sports, his super competitive drive and desire to give one hundred and ten percent in everything he did led him to excel in baseball and football and snowboarding. His amazing spirit and willingness to work with younger kids and those who needed him. He loved helping and coaching his younger brother’s baseball team. Gaining a strong work ethic and leadership skills from sports, Hayes turned his focus to the family business Ralph Sellers Motor Company. He found his passion in working on automobiles, and made lifetime friends with Vic, Shane, and Kaylee, who taught him all he knew about cars.
Hayes leaves behind a void in our hearts that cannot be filled, his love for his two brothers was unwavering and immeasurable and he will always be there in spirit to help Greyson and Madden on their journey of life.
