Although Aunt Mildred was not my biological Aunt, I loved her and remember her fondly. Her sister, Mary Lee was my aunt and when my siblings and I was little we saw her quite often; therefore, she became our aunt,also. She was truly a beautiful person. May God bless those who loved her and will always miss her presence.

Deepest sympathy to Erwin and his entire family,on your loss. Mrs. Vaughan was a great lady who I enjoyed talking to when I was growing up as a friend of Erwin's. A long full life with plenty of love for her kids, grand kids and great grand kids.

Not really a story but just a saying, that her son Erwin reminded me of last year. When I would go to his house to play drums or guitar, and I over stayed my welcome, Mrs. Vaughan would say, Ok Erwin it's time for your little friend to leave now. It kind of caught me by surprise when she said it, but I knew she would always welcome me back another day.

We are so very sorry for the passing of your Mom. She was a wonderful neighbor to us and we will miss her beautiful smile and wave from the front porch. She was always so kind and friendly, and a true example of a Christian Lady. May the wonderful memories that you have of her help you through this difficult time. She will be dearly missed. With Love and Comfort, Lynette, Mac, and Robert Jr.

Barbara and family, we did not get to know your mom well, but what we saw of her and knew of her was outstanding. We know you and see what a kind, loving and generous child of God you are and know that your mother instilled that in you, and you, in your own children. We know you will miss her greatly. The pain and sorrow will diminish as the days go on, and will be replaced with the love and memories you hold dear. The wonderful thing is that we know where she is and that all her pain and suffering is over. It is promised in the bible that this too shall pass. God is good and never leaves us or forsakes us. We love you and are here if you need us. We are so sorry that we will not be able to make the service. We will be at my sisters all week-end taking care of her but we will be there in spirit. God bless you all.

MeMa Vaughan was such a beautiful example of what a Christian woman should be: prayerful, kind, and compassionate. Many years ago (Gary was probably around 14) the youth group planned a potluck supper. Gary said he would get his mom to make fried chicken because she was the best cook in town. Years later, Leroy often talked about stopping by mama's for a quick sandwich etc. All of her children spoke highly of her and even if you weren't one of hers-she certainly made you feel like it. Erwin, Barbara, Gary, and family please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I was blessed to have known her. I am sure she heard "well done thy good and faithful servant" as she entered the gates of heaven.
