Samantha Hayes

Samantha Addison Hayes, age 27, of Idabel, Oklahoma, died, Friday, September 29, 2023, in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. She was born on Wednesday, September 11, 1996 to John Madison Hayes and Karen Lewis in Madill, Oklahoma.

Samantha was an avid enthusiast of recreational activities. Her zest for life was evident in the way she cherished spending time with her family, especially taking her children for fishing and swimming adventures. As a spiritual person, she embodied love in her every action and taught those lucky enough to be in her life the essence of genuine affection and care.

Among Samantha's greatest lessons was teaching the world how to love - unconditionally, generously, and selflessly. She embodied this lesson every day, particularly through her role as a single mother. Despite life's hurdles, Samantha thrived in this role, exhibiting an unparalleled dedication to her children. She was also a certified body contouring professional, leaving a positive mark on the lives of many who benefited from her expertise.

Samantha's legacy will forever be etched in the endless love she held for her family. She leaves behind her identical twin sister, Kimberly, who shares not only their features but also Samantha's spirit of tenacity and love. Samantha held a special place in her heart for her workplace, Broken Bow Parks and Recs; it was more than a job to her, it became her second family.

We mourn the loss of a beautiful soul, but find solace in the rich tapestry of love, wisdom, and strength that Samantha has left behind. Her memory will continue to uplift, inspire, and serve as a beacon of hope for us all. May her soul find rest and tranquility in Heaven. She will be sorely missed. Chi Pisa La Chike.
