1949 - 2023

It is with heavy hearts we announce the sudden passing of Vaughn Crofford. After a brief battle with cancer, Vaughn succumbed on June 25, 2023 at the Ajax hospital.

Vaughn, a “Western boy”, was born October 1, 1949 in Craik, Saskatchewan, to parents Earl and Gertrude (Rowe) Crofford (both deceased).

He will be sorely missed by his best friend and partner Maureen Hizaka. His daughters Susan (Ryan) and Sandra, (Jamie - the son he never had) and his grandson, Austin Vaughn Kerr, his namesake. He is so proud to be called Grandpa by that little lad. His brother Terry, nephews Chad and Scott, Janice and Eric Foster, Uncle Ray Rowe, special Aunty Kay Fey, and many family members and friends share this loss.

Family and friends are invited to join Vaughn’s family to celebrate his life at the McEachnie Family Centre, 20 Church St. N., Ajax, on Tuesday, June 27, 2023, from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Vaughn will be interred at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made in memory of Vaughn to Sleeping Children Around The World, Special Olympics Ontario, or a charity of your choice.
