Victor H. "Pap" Vaughn, Sr., 81, of Chambersburg, died unexpectedly on the morning of Sunday, May 5, 2013, at his home.

He was born on February 29, 1932, in Newburg, a son of the late William R. and Rhoda M. Cramer Vaughn and was the husband of Charlotte L. Hurley Vaughn, who passed away on November 11, 2012.

Victor was a U.S. Army Veteran of both the Korean and Vietnam War. He continued in service to his country for 26 years, retiring in 1976. He then worked as a Gate Guard at the Letterkenny Army Depot, retiring from there in 1993.

He was a member of the Charles H. Nitterhouse V.F.W. Post #1599 and the AmVets Post # 224, both of Chambersburg. He served as an Honor Guard, conducting military honors, with the Nitterhouse V.F.W Post # 1599, for over 20 years. Victor was a good man with few complaints in life. Heaven certainly gained a gem.
