Sister Delaris “Nuda” Hays entered into eternal rest on Tuesday, July 24, 2018, at Colleton Medical Center, Walterboro, South Carolina. She was born in Hampton County, South Carolina on March 24, 1944 to the late Mr. Paul Hays and Mrs. Eloise Murdaugh Hays-White.
She was affectionately known as “Nuda”; and she was loved by so many people. Everyone she met was the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Nuda would often tell the staff at Josie Drive and the Colleton County Disability Board to give “so and so a dollar for Nuda.” Her love for gospel music and her fashionable pocketbooks were unparalleled.
Nuda was a member of Miley Church of God, Miley, South Carolina until March, 2002. At that time, her mother could no longer care for Nuda due to her health status.
