COLUMBIAMAGAZINE.COM OBITUARIES

A wonderful little boy who brought out the best in a caring community is gone. James Vaughn brightened the lives of so many others, though he endured so much himself. His courage, the way he relished life, and the many special friendships he made will live on as cherished memories for Columbians and Adair Countians

Remembering James Vaughn: April 25, 1997-June 30, 2008



2008-07-01 - Columbia, KY - Photo By Cathy Moss.
"This morning my daughter's best friend died," Cathy Moss wrote Monday afternoon. "James loved for Keisha to get on her scotter and ride it up and down the road as he watched. He also loved it when my son Jordan started up his demolition derby car, and made it go vrrrooom! He was truly a special child who touched so many lives, as was shown by the community in 2006 during a fundraising drive to help the family purchase a special van to transport James to his doctor, and to let the little boy see things around town. We'll miss him so much."
