Obituary for James "Dick" Richard Vaughan
VAUGHAN, James “Dick” Richard
Dick passed peacefully at home with his family by his side, on Wednesday, March 16th, 2022, in his 80th year. Loving husband and best friend of Priscilla Vaughan (nee Gallant); caring father of Nancy (Paul) Vaughan and Susan (James) Vaughan; and proud grandfather of Maddison and Zachary. He will be deeply missed by his siblings Barbara, Jeannie and Peter, his extended family and his many friends.
Dick was a connoisseur of ice cream and a crossword puzzle master. He loved to drive, whether it be a coast-to-coast trek, or a quick jaunt to Sauble Beach for a hamburger and a slice of cherry berry pie. For many years driving was his job and upon retirement he put his talent to good use as a volunteer driver for the Red Cross and Food for Life.
Our heartfelt thanks to all of Dick’s many doctors, nurses and support workers who cared for him throughout his journey.
For those who wish, donations in Dick’s honour to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Cancer Assistance Program (Hamilton) would be sincerely appreciated by the family.
A celebration of Dick’s life will be held later in the spring.
