Life story

Aubrey Kenneth Vaughn, aged 83 years, departed this earthly realm to enter Glory on July 10, 2022.

Mr. Vaughn, endearingly known as Kenneth, was born July 22, 1938 in Franklin, Tennessee but was a long time resident of Semmes, Alabama. He is survived by his loving wife of 61 years, Wanda Gail Vaughn; children Vicki Douglas (Kevin) of Saraland, Al and Michael Vaughn (Wendy) of Semmes, Al; beloved grandchildren Jennifer Stanley (George), Ronald Easterling (Terry), Brittany Vaughn, Logan Vaughn, Evan Vaughn; an impressive 11 great grandchildren and 1 great-great grandchild; siblings Doris Vaughn, Velma Fillingim, Norma Danzey; and many nieces, nephews and special friends.

Kenneth was a graduate of Vigor High School and proudly served his country in the United States Marine Corp. reaching the rank of Corporal as a firearms specialist, sharp shooter, and antitank assaultman/loader on the regaled Ontos, the armored vehicle known as the “tank killer.” After fulfilling his patriotic duty, he worked 43 years at Scott Paper Company as a mechanic. Away from work, Kenneth enjoyed watching football, keeping his yard clean, and especially spending time with his family.

He is preceded in death by his parents Howard and Pauline Vaughn.
