Admiral Hayes is best remembered as a sailor and a champion of the Coast Guard as well as a beloved husband, father and friend.
"Admiral Hayes was one of our most dynamic Commandants, an icon in the legacy of the Coast Guard. He is truly loved by this organization and will be greatly missed," said Admiral James M. Loy, Commandant of the Coast Guard.
Admiral Hayes was born August 30, 1924, in Jamestown, N.Y. He entered the Coast Guard Academy July 14, 1943, and graduated June 5, 1946, with a commission as Ensign. He spent most of his Coast Guard career in command positions. These included shore commands in Japan, Florida, Vietnam, and Alaska as well as sea commands of three Coast Guard cutters. Admiral Hayes returned to the Coast Guard Academy as Commandant of Cadets before his promotion to Rear Admiral in 1973.
As Commandant, Admiral Hayes ordered a comprehensive Roles and Missions study that helped to shape the present-day Coast Guard. He led Coast Guard responses to several significant events including the Prinsendam rescue off the Alaskan coast, the Florida Air Flight 90 crash in Washington, D.C. and the Mariel Boatlift which, at the time, was the single largest search largest search and rescue operation in Coast Guard history. He also saw the Coast Guard through difficult budget battles and fended off proposed reorganizations he felt would undermine the flexibility and effectiveness of the Service.
Admiral Hayes received numerous awards over the course of his distinguished career. Among those were the Coast Guard Distinguished Service Medal with one gold star, the Legion of Merit with one gold star, the Meritorious Service Medal and the Coast Guard Commendation Medal.
His profound impact on many individuals' lives was mirrored in his other interests and passions. An Eagle Scout, he continued his affiliation with the Boy Scouts as a troop leader and a member of the National Council. Both Bigelow Laboratory, a marine sciences laboratory in Boothbay Harbor and the Armed Services YMCA benefited in many ways from his expertise and skills in long-range planning during his tenure as a member and Chairperson of their Boards of Trustees. His passions for scuba diving, fishing and hiking took him all over the world with family and friends.
Admiral Hayes was an active member of St. Columba's Episcopal Church in Boothbay. He served as Senior Warden for four years and was a driving force in guiding the mission's efforts in planning for a church building.
Admiral Hayes was killed after being accidentally struck by a vehicle during a hike along the Florida Keys. Survivors include his wife, Elizabeth of Boothbay Harbor; four children, Christie Hayes, John Hayes, William Hayes, and Virginia Hayes; and seven grandchildren.
