April 19, 1938 – May 18, 2014
Wayne went peacefully to a wonderful place without pain and anguish at noon on May 18, 2014 in the Foothills Hospital, Calgary with his loving wife Vicki at his side.
He was born to Florence and Wayland Vaughn at Macoun Saskatchewan where he spent his childhood. He was educated at Macoun school and after graduation migrated to the oil patch which was booming during the 50’s.
Wayne is lovingly remembered by his wife Vicki (Bzdel) of almost 54 years as well as 6 siblings. 3 sisters; Gloria (Zielinski) of Edmonton, Louise (Ralph Hughes) of Calgary, Connie (Greg Brown) of Cochrane. 3 brothers; Donald of Regina, Worsel (Krys) of Toronto, Doug (Kay) of Saskatoon as well as several nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his parents Florence and Wayland Vaughn, sister in law Linda Vaughn, niece Gayline Vaughn, and brother in law Bill Zielinski.
His livelihood centered around the oil patch and started with battery operating in the Oxbow/Alida Saskatchewan area with future moves to Kindersley Saskatchewan and ultimately to Alberta with Sun Oil Corp and became superintendant of gas for them for Northern Alberta. He then branched out as a private consultant and was very instrumental in being part of Grad and Walker’s climb to success in the Alberta oil patch.
He enjoyed hunting and golf in his leisure hours. He was very successful as a hunter but he would agree he was less successful as a golfer but enjoyed both to the fullest.
Wayne’s battle with kidney disease spanned almost 6 years and the last few months included dialysis which proved to be insurmountable.
A Celebration of Wayne’s Life will be held at 11:00 A.M. on Saturday, May 31, 2014 at the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch No.15, 114 – 5th Avenue West, Cochrane, with a Reception to follow.
