My most sincere condolences to the Wilhite family. Vaughn was a kind compassionate man. I remember many evenings at the Johnson Gym at AU watching him play basketball. For being such a gentleman, he was quite the terror on the court, just as his sisters were also. May God's grace and strength be with the family during this difficult time.

I am so deeply troubled to hear about Vaughn's passing. He was a positive, uplifting presence while living in the DC area. The most humblest condolences to the entire family, words cannot express the sadness for your loss. We look forward to the day when this kind of pain and frustration will be no more. Come quickly LORD Jesus.

Vaughn was a gentleman from a family of christian men and women. Always kind, always smiling and gentle.
It will not be long till we shall see Him in whom our hopes of eternal life are centered. And in His presence, all the trials and sufferings of this life will be as nothingness. . . . For yet a little while, and He that shall come will come, and will not tarry

You might not ever soar as high without him...with Jesus, you can go the distance..
