Monica embodied warmth, strength, and kindness.

Monica Jane Hayden, born on April 1, 1959, departed this life on August 11, 2026, leaving behind a legacy treasured by those who knew and loved her. Monica was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished grandmother, and loyal sister whose presence will be deeply missed.

Throughout her life, Monica embodied warmth, strength, and kindness. She shared a life of partnership and love with her husband, Darrell, offering unwavering support and care. As a mother, she guided her son Charles with a gentle hand and a compassionate heart, fostering a foundation of love and encouragement. Her granddaughter, Lois, brought immense joy into Monica’s later years, and their bond was a source of happiness for both.

Monica valued family above all. She was a beloved sister to Teri, with whom she shared many memories and a special connection. The loss of her brother Lee, who preceded her in death, was deeply felt; the enduring relationships Monica built within her family were testament to her unwavering sense of loyalty and love.

Her absence is keenly felt, yet the impact of her legacy and the warmth of her spirit remain. She will be remembered always with respect, love, and gratitude.
