Agnes Jewel Vaughan passed away Thursday, Feb. 16, at St. Joseph Medical Center. She was 83 years old. She was born to Pearl and Orval Choate on July 30, 1933, in Teakean, Idaho.
Agnes graduated from Orofino High School at age 15, then attended Lewiston Normal School. She married her childhood sweetheart, Ronald Vaughan, in 1950.
Ron and Agnes had two children, David and Susan. They moved to Spokane in 1966 and returned to Lewiston in 1991. In 1970, Agnes returned to business college and worked at Pacific Trail as office manager.
Agnes was an excellent homemaker who enjoyed making things special for her family, especially during holidays. Her grandchildren remember her as a great cook and candymaker, a skill she learned from her daddy. She sang with her sisters and played the piano, instilling a love of music in her children. She was a devoted grandmother, even taking them with her for a Bloomsday run. She loved to sew, crochet and hand quilt, making many beautiful gifts for her family and friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Ronald and sister Alda McIver. She is survived by her sister, Alice Damman; son David Vaughan (Maxine); daughter Susan Vannoy (Stan); grandchildren Niki, Kevin, Zoey and Luke; seven great-grandchildren; and one great-great-grandchild.
