My dear brother Vaughn was such a kind and gentle man and had such compassion for people. His words were most always tempered with understanding and empathy in situations. He loved animals and nature, especially his cat, 'kitty'. He loved his family and often stated we were all in his prayers everyday. He was always pleased to hear from us.
He will be deeply missed from our lives but will live on in our hearts for the rest of our life. - The world will never be the same without our brother here to share it.
Rest in peace my dear brother, you endured so much without complaint or asking for assistance - you were loved so very much and will always be my hero in so many ways.
You were a wonderful loving brother Vaughn - Your memory will live in my heart everyday.
