Charles Wesley Vaughan

Charles Wesley “Buck” Vaughan, 49, passed away unexpectedly on July 11th, 2021 in Bloomingdale, Georgia.

Buck was born December 19, 1971 and was a graduate of Rockbridge Senior High in Columbia, Missouri. Buck went on to work at GAF, in Savannah, Georgia, where he worked for more than 20 years. Buck loved to frequent the river, rather to fish or just reflect on his thoughts. He was an avid outdoorsman who loved hunting, fishing and taxidermy. Buck was a dear, true friend to many, and an ornery firecracker at times, especially towards his sis.  He was preceded in death by his father, Charles Wilbur Vaughan, his mother, Lizza Hixenbaugh, his grandmother, Georgie, and many aunts and uncles. Buck, also known as “Buckaroo” by his close friends and family will be sorely missed.

Buck is survived by his daughter, Courtney Llyod, of South Carolina; his sister, Lesa Harn (Billy), of Bloomingdale, Ga., step-father, “Daddy Gary” Hixenbaugh of Midway, Ga.; step-siblings, Greg, Glynn and Deana Hixenbaugh; uncle, Walter Roberts (Annette) of Metter, Georgia; Buck also leaves behind nephews and cousins he so lovingly referred to as “Cuz.” 

Buck requested to be cremated. To honor his memory a friends and family gathering will be held at the Thomas L. Carter Funeral Home Chapel in Flemington, Georgia, on Thursday, July 15th, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. 

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you gather together to share memories of Buck and spend time with your loved ones. 

Thomas L. Carter Funeral Home is handling arrangements.
