"Kevin Thomas "Pip" Hayes, age 49, passed away March 26, 2017 at his home in Lyons, Nebraska. He was born on October 12, 1967 in Oakland, Nebraska to Donald and Ilene (Larsen) Hayes.
He graduated from Lyons Decatur Northeast High School in 1986. He participated in many sports and activities in high school and was a very popular student and friend to his peers. As a young child he developed a love for reading books and playing card games. His aptitude for learning would have him playing adult card games, and beating them, at the age of 10. This love of playing competitive card games continued on with him for the rest of his life.
Kevin was a devout Miami Dolphins fan. He always had Dolphin memorabilia around. His prized possession was an autographed Dan Marino jersey. When the Dolphins were playing you knew Pip would be watching.
Kevin went on to attend college at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky. He graduated in 1990, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science.
Kevin worked and traveled around the country, living in several cities throughout the US. This included Omaha, NE, Lincoln, NE, Denver, CO, Santa Fe, NM, New Orleans, LA and Memphis, TN, to name a few. His work was always sales and customer service oriented, which highlighted his skills as a very people friendly person. Kevin always had a smile and a friendly voice to greet you when you called or stopped by.
He eventually returned to his Nebraska roots, and worked as a bartender in Oakland for several years. His last few years were spent in Lyons, at the family home he grew up in. He took care of his aging parents and worked part time at the Lyons Public Library.
He was preceded in death by his father, Don Hayes; brother, Bradley; nephew, Timothy Bradley.
At the time of his passing, Kevin was survived by his mother, Ilene; brothers, Jeffrey (Anne) of Albion, NE, Charles of Okinawa, Japan, Timothy (Rebecca) of Centennial, CO; aunt, Darlene Lund of St. George, UT; uncle, Bill Hines of Covina, CA; aunt, Frelon Danielson of Oakland; several nieces and nephews."
