PAUL ROSS HAYDEN

Paul Ross Hayden of Los Altos passed away peacefully at home on August 9, 2006 after a heroic battle with brain cancer.

Ross was born July 26, 1944 in Louisville, Kentucky to Paul Hayden and his wife, Lucille. Growing up locally, he graduated with honors from St. Xavier High School in Louisville and later graduated with honors from the University of Louisville with both a BS and MS in Engineering.

Ross stated his career as an engineer at Bell Labs. He later switched to marketing and sales, eventually working for a variety of technology companies such as Fairchild, Intel, ISD, and DSP Group. His last position was Vice President of Sales at Global Locate.

Ross’ family and friends remember him as an avid reader, traveler and sports enthusiast who enjoyed jogging, basketball, and golf. He regularly played basketball at his club and hosted his own 60th birthday golf tournament in 2004, where he hit the longest drive of the day. Proud of his Irish heritage, Ross traveled several times to Ireland where he often stayed at a friend’s castle in the county of Limerick.

We want to thank the many friends and family members for their much appreciated support and kindness. Special thanks go to his caregivers, which included Pathways Home Health & Hospice and the local Tongan community.

Ross is survived by his faithful wife, Katrina, and his loyal Irish wolfhound, Keegan. He is also survived by his loving sister, Kathy Hayden, and mother, Lucille Hayden, both of Louisville, Kentucky.

Visitation was held at the Spangler Mortuary in Los Altos on August 11th. Full mass services will be held at Saint Agnes Catholic Church in Louisville, Kentucky on Wednesday, August 16. Burial services will be held afterwards at the Calvary Cemetery in Louisville, Kentucky.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Pathways Home Health & Hospice at 585 North Mary Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085 (888-755-7855).
