Hayse B. Sealy's Obituary
Hays Sealy was born on November 28, 2005, in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, the son of Kim and Marshall Sealy. He graduated from Hernando High School in 2025, where he was known for his infectious laughter and love for adventure.
Hays had a deep passion for football and a strong desire to serve his country. He was also a talented guitarist, a loyal friend, and was known for his gentle nature. He brought unparalleled joy to his family and his close-knit group of friends.
He loved the ocean—the beach was not just a place to him, but a feeling of peace and tranquility. He found solace in the sound of the waves and the touch of salty air. In the hustle of life, Hays found balance at the ocean’s edge. He enjoyed surfing, collecting seashells, and chasing the tides.
Hays took great pride in his appearance and carried himself with confidence in everything he did. He believed in his future and knew he was destined for greatness.
Following his calling to serve, Hays graduated from the United States Marine Corps with honors, becoming a 0313 Light Armored Vehicle Crewman. In this role, he served in reconnaissance battalions, specializing in fast, armored, amphibious, and mobile warfare. He took immense pride in his career and truly loved what he did.
We take comfort in knowing Hays is at peace. Those who will miss him most include his parents, Kim and Marshall Sealy; his siblings, Hunter (Fadia) and Holden (Hunter); his grandparents, Joanne (George); and his beloved nieces, Josie, Gracelyn, Everly, and Laenee.
He is now reunited in Heaven with Richard F. Sealy, and Rodger and Debbie Holden.
