Kendra Nichols Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Holman-Howe Funeral Homes Lebanon on Dec. 25, 2025.
Kendra Lea Nichols was born January 14, 1993 in Independence, Missouri to Charles and Sandra Caples Vaughn. She passed away Wednesday, December 24, 2025 in her home in Lebanon, Missouri. She was thirty-two years, eleven months and ten days of age.

Kendra grew up in the Lebanon area and attended Lebanon schools.

She is preceded in death by her maternal and paternal grandparents.

Kendra is survived by her parents, Charles and Sandra Vaughn of Belton, Missouri; two daughters, Adelyn Keeney and Alexis Keeney; a son, Cameron Keeney; and her sister, Cassie Rea of Belton, Missouri.

Kendra enjoyed doing arts and crafts and going to the river whenever possible. She loved her dog, "Bo", but most of all, she loved her family very much. She had lots of friends and enjoyed spending time with them.

As we remember Kendra, let us celebrate the impact she had on our lives. May her memory remind us to embrace love and kindness each day. Though she may no longer physically present, her spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her.

A Visitation/Service will be held Tuesday, December 30, 2025 at Holman-Howe Funeral Home.

A memorial has been established and donations may be left at the funeral home.
