She bravely and gracefully battled cancer, and while she didn’t lose that battle, she opted for peace and comfort instead of war on her terms.

Gwen is survived by her loving husband of 50 years - Dennis Hayes of Ovid, NY, son Daniel (Heather) Hayes of Watertown, CT, daughter Kimberly (Taylor) Partee of Seneca Falls, NY, granddaughters Aubrea Partee of Sidney Center, NY, Sara Partee of Seneca Falls, NY, Grace Hayes of Seymour, CT, Ava Hayes of Watertown, CT and her beloved joy great granddaughter Scarlett Newell of Sidney Center, NY.
