Ernest Lowell Vaughn
Lowell Vaughn passed away peacefully in Auburn, Washington on January 16th, 2015. Lowell was the youngest in a family of 5 born in Wenatchee Washington February 3rd, 1930 to Stanley and Florence Vaughn.
Lowell was a graduate of the University of Washington in mechanical engineering. As a college student he met his wife to be, Betty Jeanne Sills, which resulted in a marriage of 63 years. He enjoyed a career of 41 years as a project equipment engineer for the Boeing Company. Lowell had a passion for the outdoors and invested many of his years in leadership positions for the scouting organization.
