Dale M. Hayes

Dale Marshall Hayes, 48, of North Weymouth, died June 25, 2021.

Dale was a proud and respected veteran with a military career serving the United States for over 25 years combined in the Marine Corps as a Sergeant, the Army, the Air Force as a Master Sergeant and the Air National Guard, with numerous awards and promotions in each branch.

In the Air Force, Dale found his passion for air craftsmanship and became a skilled mechanic mastering the ins and outs of every aircraft he worked on while at the Otis Air National Guard Base.

Dale was adventurous and enjoyed camping, fishing and nature. He helped build his family camp in Maine where he and his family and friends made endless memories. Dale also loved learning and reading about history. He was a great cook and loved music and playing his guitar. Undoubtedly, Dale’s main appreciation in life was his family.
