I remember Vaughn from the Movement Centre many years ago when he was my classmate in the program. Thankful to have crossed paths. May he Rest In Peace.

Joella, I was so sad to hear about Vaughn. It was a lovely service today filled with many people and things most important to Vaughn. I loved hearing everyone's stories and wish I had the opportunity to know him better and be part of his village. He obviously impacted many people in many ways.
Good job mom!! You raised a lovely young man. One thing the pastor said that I know for sure about you - was when he talked about your advocacy qualities and Vaughn was blessed with a mom who never settled - he had such quality of life. His pictures were also evident of this. Take care. Hugs to you. - Wendy Humphrey

I was so sad to hear that Vaughn left us but I know he’s in the arms of Jesus. Vaughn was on my school bus for 3 years. His smile always made my day brighter . I had been told that if ever there was no one home , I could bring Vaughn inside and wait for mom and dad . I decided to fill some time with Vaughn by singing “ oh give me a home , where the buffalo roam ..” Vaughn thought this was hilarious ! I wasn’t sure if the song was so funny or my voice ? He will be missed ,Susan unrau

I had the privilege of working with Vaughn during his elementary years at Woodlawn School. That smile of his could light up an entire room! Vaughn taught me so many things and I reflect back on those experiences to this day. My sincere condolences to the family.

I remember at Steinbach Junior High School we all loved talking to Vaughn as he went down the hall. He always had a big smile for us! He especially liked it when Mr. Dueck would sing to him and gave him Blue Bomber stuff and Jets things. He was a sports fan! I was glad I could know him for many of his years.

It was a shock to see Vaughn's picture on Birchwood. A memory I have which I will never forget is when he would pray along with whoever was praying in church. He had a heart for other's but firstly God with whom he is rejoicing now. My heart weeps for you Joelah, Lauren and Ian. You have all been through so much and you will forever have an empty place in your heart. May God comfort you during this time as you remember Vaughn and celebrate his homegoing. In Love and prayers Peter and Betty Klippenstein
