The Passing of a Bigfoot Enthusiast

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on April 23rd, 2013

While in Ohio attending the 25th Annual Ohio Bigfoot Conference, I received news of not only my father’s passing, but also that of a fellow Bigfoot enthusiast.

On Sunday, 4/14, Brenda Hayes, wife of Johnny Hayes called to tell me of his passing on Saturday.

She didn’t know me, she was going through Johnny’s cell phone and letting his friends know.

John Hayes attended the Texas Bigfoot Conference going back to at least 2007 in Jefferson.

He and his son James attended Cryptopalooza in Jefferson last fall, and they both also attended the most recent Texas Bigfoot Conference in Fort Worth last month.

John was a very nice and friendly man who I enjoyed talking Bigfoot with over the years at the conferences.

I will surely miss him at the next one.

Godspeed Johnny!
