Michael Robert Hayes passed away peacefully on February 23, 2024, aged 68. He will be missed by his sister Diane, brother Keith and good friend Monty. Mike was predeceased by his parents, Gordie and Barbara, and his brother Gary.
Michael was born and raised in Powell River, working in the logging industry in his younger years. Later he trained as a cook and owned a small business in Vancouver.
In 2007, Mike returned to Powell River to help his dad care for his mum.
Michael was a gentle man. Even though his life was not always easy, his kind nature shone through; he had a smile that lit up the world!
A special thank-you to all the staff at Willingdon Creek Village who gave patient, warm care and comfort to Michael until his passing.
