Vaughn Sr. (Lora) of Sumner; parents-in-law: Glenda (Gary) Jones of Louisville and Dexter (Joan) Binion of Franklin, OH; three sons: Codi Vaughn (April Kasinger) of Bridgeport, Bryce Vaughn of Olney, and Seager Broome of Flora; one daughter: Ivy Vaughn of Flora; two granddaughters: Kinley and Avri; grandmother: Ann Vaughn of Olney; siblings: Eddie Vaughn (Tisha) of Olney, Paul Vaughn (Kerry) of Taylorville, Latosha Burke (Marty) of Sumner, and David Vaughn of Bone Gap; along with several nieces, nephews, aunts, extended family and good friends.

He was preceded in death by his mother; granddaughter: Nova Lee Vaughn; grandfather: Jim Vaughn; grandmother: Mary Hubert; and a brother: Vernon Vaughn.
