About Joseph Hayes
Father Joseph F. X. Hayes, CSP, was born in New York City on August 30, 1921. He entered the Paulist Juniorate in Baltimore in 1938 and attended St. Charles College. He made his first profession in 1942 and was ordained a Catholic priest on May 1, 1948, with classmates Charles White, Harold (Bud) Powers, Norman J. O'Connor and James Lloyd. A short summer assignment in Clemson, South Carolina, was followed by four years at Saint Paul the Apostle parish in New York City, and then three years on the Paulist mission band based in Chicago. In 1955 he was commissioned as a chaplain in the U.S. Air Force and served on bases in England, Korea, Italy and various locations in the United States. Father Hayes died suddenly in Falls Church, Virginia, while on his way to New York City for his mother's 88th birthday celebration. At the time of his death he was stationed at Myrtle Beach AFB in South Carolina with the rank of Lt. Colonel. In his funeral homily Fr. John Sheerin, C.S.P., noted that Father Joe had an "irrepressible humor" that caused people to gravitate "to him with their anxieties and problems." He noted that Fr. Hayes "chose to bring [people] to God by way of cheerfulness and laughter. At the time of his death he was 49 years old and had celebrated 23 years as a Paulist priest.
