Mrs. Vaughn, 89, of Bogue Chitto, MS, passed from this life on Saturday, January 25, 2020, at home with her loving family by her side.  She was born on December 20, 1930, in Clay City, IL, to Lester Long and Viola Fulk Bailey. She was a member of Montgomery Baptist Church, where she served for many years as a Sunday School Teacher and a Mission Friends leader, and was active in the Church Senior Citizen's Group; served as the leader of the Brownie & Girls Scout Troops where she took the girls camping and many other fun activities; worked several jobs over the years and in retirement became a homemaker; and enjoyed crafting, painting, sewing, and cooking - she was known for her delicious pecan and apple pies. She had a great sense of humor, loved to joke, and had a quick wit about her that entertained her family and friends with her contagious smile. But her greatest joy was her family where she was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great great-grandmother, and friend.

Preceding her in death were her parents; husband, J C Vaughn; and siblings, Dona Gaye Roberts, and Patricia Ann Hill.

Survivors are her children, Gary Vaughn and wife Carolyn of Corpus Christi, TX, and Lisa Vaughn Reid and husband Richard of Bogue Chitto, MS; 9 grandchildren;  20 great-grandchildren; 1 great great-grandchild; caregivers, Sue Rippy and Ada Grammer; and a host of family and friends.

Pallbearers are grandsons, Brad Vaughn, Andy Vaughn, Justin Wallace, Cody Wallace, Keith Havelka, and Will Dowling.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to the staffs of Deaconess Home Health and Hospice Ministries.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Mrs. Vaughn's name to Montgomery Baptist Church Building Fund.
