Raleigh Armstrong Vaughn

Born in Southern Michigan in 1973 Raleigh Armstrong Vaughn was an antsy child. He always wanted to play whatever the game would be. Always ready for school and he never wanted to go to bed.  In 1984 his family moved to Southern Nevada. He found a way to make the days funny as if he were on the stage life. He even made a comic routine about the desert heat. "There's no humidity, it's a dry heat: Then why am I walking around like I got a pair of vice grips on my lungs." A huge enthusiasm for freestyle BMX, he also traded frames and built bikes only to sell them and build again. After High School he attended Community College to be a Chef. A few years after working Chef Raleigh came home and said "I hate cooking, I hate the heat, why do I want to be a Chef?" Frank, his older brother handed him a stage hand newsletter because his other brother was a former stage hand and Raleigh said, "This looks fun!" He fell in love with Local 720 and started a company Inline Productions shortly after.  He met his first wife Kristen there and greeted all with a sense of passion, theatrics and humor intertwined.  He was a jolly soul to be missed by all his friends and family. It's not enough to say rest in peace. For Raleigh R.I.P. should stand for "Roar In Paradise."
