Roy Vaughn, Son of Victor Vaughn, Dean of Clarke
Friend of Clarke College
December 10, 2011


Roy Vaughn, son of Dean Victor Vaughn and Mrs. Joyce Vaughn, died Dec. 10, 2011 at his home in Ridgeland, Ms after suffering with Parkinson's Disease for about 4 years.  He died in his sleep, of a heart attack---a complication of the Parkinson's.  He was 52, and is survived by his father, his wife, Greta, and 2 daughters and by a brother, Michael, who now lives in Huntsville, AL. 

Victor, Roy's father, has had multiple strokes, which have left him almost non-existent of speech; he resides in a nursing home in Clinton. 

Also, I am not sure if a notice has been posted concerning Joyce Vaughn's death a few years ago---from Alzheimer's for a number of years.
