Pam, Amy & Jim & spouses, I am so very sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing this past week. I have so very many fond & cherished memories of growing up down the street from my best friend Pam & close friend Amy. Mr Jim & Mrs Shirley Vaughn were good & loving parents, always so kind to me by including me in many family activities. I will always remember my halcyon childhood spent among the family, whether it was dancing in the Living Room or spending every Summer day at the pool. It was apparent to all that Mr Vaughn loved his family He was a good man, whom I’ve always held & will continue to hold in high esteem. I cared very deeply for the Vaughn’s & will miss them.
