Vale Roy Hayes
5 June 2025
Roy Hayes was a man that will be best remembered as one of the nicest individuals in our sport who sadly passed away last week, aged 91.
Roy was always positive in his outlook having raced horses with his brothers Norm (deceased) and Kevin (deceased) for more than half a century.
Their horses were always in the winners’ circle for the trio. Some of Roy’s horses included Pleasant Bruce, Hold The Aces, King of Spirits, Bye Rate, Miss Artistic Tara, Ernirama, Taralinger and Lombo Baccarat.
On behalf of the entire industry, the Harness Racing New South Wales Board extend our sincere condolences to the family of Roy Hayes, his wife Jeanette, children Lorraine and Warren and their children. May he rest in eternal peace.
The funeral details for Roy Hayes are:
H.Parsons Funeral Home
4 Princes Highway Dapto
Friday June 6, 2025 at 12 noon
Following the service, his funeral will proceed to Lakeside Memorial Park, Kanahooka Road, Kanahooka
