Hayden Slayde Davis, born September 30, 2005, passed away far too soon, leaving behind a family and community who loved him deeply. Though his life was short, Hayden’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. Hayden was a beloved son, grandson, partner, father, brother, nephew, and friend. He was cherished by his Maw Maw, Teresa Davis; his grandmother, Dana Durden; and his grandfathers, Jake Runfalo and Shane Richmon. He was also deeply loved by his godparents, Maddy and Chris Blanchard.

He is survived by his longtime partner, Jaida Savarese; his beloved son, Kingston; and his expected daughter, who all will forever carry a part of him with them. He is also survived by his siblings, Alexis Runfalo and Brandon Runfalo; his uncles, Donald Davis and Leslie Davis; his aunt and uncle, Sierra Runfalo and Jonathan Runfalo as well as many great aunts and uncles, cousins, extended family members, and dear friends who will forever cherish his memory.
