at Southway Baptist Church with burial at Riverwood Memorial Park. Visitation is from 1:30 until time of the service.

 

Chad, 50, went to be with his Lord on February 24, 2021 at his residence.

Chad was born on August 18, 1970. He was a former member of the Lions Club,

Co-owner of Brookhaven Milling Company, and creator of Mo’ Bucks Deer Feed.

Chad enjoyed cattle farming, hunting, fishing, and inventing new products and ways to kill weeds

in ponds and ways to attract deer for hunters. He was being SEC recruited to play college football

at the time of his injury in 1987, but continued his love for college football by attending home Ole Miss

games with his wife and friends and away games at most all the

SEC stadiums. He was also a member of Southway Baptist Church.

 

Preceding him in death were his father, Gerald Glen Vaughn, mother, Rebecca Elizabeth Nettles Vaughn,

maternal grandparents, Walter Edward and Elizabeth Nettles, paternal grandparents, Leighton, and Myrtle Vaughn.

Those left to cherish his memory are his wife of 22 plus years, Mendez Vaughn, sisters, Angie V. Jordan and husband Bob,

and Bethany V. Lewis, and husband, Keith, along with nieces, Kailyn Jordan and Olivia Lewis, and nephews, Leighton Jordan, and Glen Vaughn Lewis.

    I'm so sorry for your loss Mrs Mendez. I live up in Oregon now, I had no idea til just now. You are a beautiful soul, miss you a bunch. Mr Chad was a permanent element of my childhood, the funny uncle. I know he was treasured by everyone who knew him.

    Such a great loss. Hard to believe. He was such a great person and a dear friend. I remember seeing him under a piece of equipment working on it at the Mill. He never let anything stop him. He will be missed by so many. Especially me. God bless Mendy and his Family through the days ahead. Prayers and much love to you all.

    I loved Chad! I've known him since he was in high school and had the pleasure of teaching him at Co-Lin. I am not sure he thought it was a pleasure however.
    So many great memories of him and Mendez. One of my favorites is from my 50th Birthday party when all of us girls gave him a lap dance..PG of course!! He was a great sport. Chad will forever be in my heart and memories. Always her for you Mendez - Love you! To Angie and Bethany and all of your family my heart goes out to you..Your mom was a wonderful sweet amazing lady as well. Prayers lifted!!
