Patricia Ann Hayes, age 66, was born on June 7, 1959, in Alabama. She was raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, where she spent most of her life building lasting memories with family and friends. Patricia peacefully departed this life on April 10, 2026.

Patricia attended Taft High School in Cincinnati, Ohio. She was a woman whose life touched many, and she will be remembered for her strength, her warmth, and the love she so freely gave.

She had a joyful spirit and enjoyed life- especially playing cards, bingo, and Pokeno. Patricia cherished spending time with her family and close friends, always bringing laughter and good energy wherever she went. She loved babysitting the kids and watching her good ole western and karate flicks. Her favorite movie was La Bamba.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Aslee (Tina) Hayes, and Leon Hayes Sr.; her sister, Betty Jean Bowman; and her brother, Wesley "Earl" Hayes.

She leaves to cherish her precious memories: her brothers, Leon Hayes Jr. (Mary Hayes) and Michael Hayes (Janice Hayes); her sisters, Jessie Chapman and Brenda Franklin (Earnest Franklin); her aunts, Marbelle Gill, Corline Stone, Thelma Noland, and Mattie Maul; along

with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and dear friends who will forever hold her in their hearts. Patricia's love, laughter, and legacy will continue to live on in all who knew and loved her. "Rest peacefully in the arms of the Lord."

Heavenly Father,

We come before You with heavy hearts, asking for Your divine comfort over this family. Wrap Your loving arms around each one who is grieving. Heal every broken place, calm every anxious thought, and replace sorrow with Your perfect peace. Lord, remind us that You are close in our mourning and faithful in our pain. Strengthen us when we feel weak and help us to trust You even when we don't understand. We thank You for the life of Patricia and the time we were blessed to share with her. May her soul rest in eternal peace, and may Your light continue to shine upon her legacy. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

Forever in our hearts.

We Love you,

"Fat Momma"
