Mr. Vaughn spent his education career at his beloved Highfalls Elementary where he was a classroom teacher (1966-1984) and then served as principal (1984-1999). He also served part-time as the Northern Moore teacher for the Sandhills Community College Adult Basic Education GED program.

Mr. Vaughn will be laid to rest in a Masonic graveside ceremony at Highfalls Friends Church on Thursday, December 21st at 1:00 pm. The family asks if you attend the graveside service to please dress for comfort and possible weather conditions.
It has been said that the measure of a person’s life is not when they were born or when they died, or how long they lived, but what is important is the “dash” in between. The “dash” tells us what kind of person they were. Well, Ray’s/Fred’s “dash” was filled with love, laughing, telling jokes, old cars, and most of all people he enjoyed spending time with: family, Highfalls Elementary School staff and students, the Brothers of Elise Lodge, and Tabernacle United Methodist Church members.
Joyce-Brady Chapel of Bennett, NC is honored to serve the Vaughn family.
