Paul Eugene Hays, a computer systems professional and entrepreneur, died from COVID-19 on Feb. 24 at 58 years old.
In 1989, Paul Hays moved to Athens when he recognized the value of technology and his passion for helping small businesses, said Inna Hays, his mother. He continued his education at the University of Georgia in the Ph.D. management information systems program, but left to make a mark of his own.
Paul Hays started his company, Athens Technology Partners, and he set up and maintained computer systems for businesses and organizations around the U.S. until he died.
Each customer and person he met became his friend, his brother Michael Hays said.
