NANCY VAUGHN

Nancy was a beautiful person

I just found this obituary. Mrs Vaughn was my English teacher in 1974 at Fairfax High. Her English class was the most memorable and favorite one of all my high school and college classes. She connected where others did not and really cared for her students. Her amazing life doesn’t surprise me one bit. My condolences.

Nancy was not only my sister's fellow high school cheerleader, but also her very best friend and the best friend the Price family ever had. Nancy lit up whatever space she occupied and was the most accomplished woman it has been my privilege to know. My mother cherished the visits for which Nancy always made time, whenever she visited Portland. I am lucky that I got to know her. She will be missed terribly.

We send our sympathies to you and your family on your loss. Nancy was a wonderful loving person and Kathy truly enjoyed her company. We only regret that we were unable to attend Nancy's service due to a prior commitment. Hope to see you soon at Senile Saints.

I am so deeply saddened to learn of Nancy's passing. She was a wonderful person and role model to us all!

Please accept our heartfelt condolences.

My Prayers go out to you Professor Vaughn and your family during this time of loss.

I knew Nancy through the times I spent with her and Robert at faculty gatherings at American University. She was a light, a flame who drew people to her. I always ending up standing next to her, talking to her or observing her. She was so present, clear, kind and funny in her interactions. And, she was always present with you. I am sorry for your loss Vaughn family. I will miss her too.

My heart is broken having to say goodbye to my fellow soprano and friend. Nancy was so fun loving in choir. My fondest memory is during rehearsals she would often read The New Yorker Magazine tucked into her choir folder and make quiet hilarious comments. She will be so missed.
