Dear friends, family, and all who loved our vibrant friend and brightest-light-in-the-room; Thomas,

As many have heard by now, Thomas Vaughn unexpectedly passed away Tuesday, 8/27/2024, surrounded by his family.

We struggle to find the strength to write words that measure up to the amazement Thomas brought to each of our lives. These last 24-hours have shown those of us who are closest to Thomas exactly how loved our Thomas was throughout every chapter of his life. Seeing the photos flow in across social media from Thomas’ childhood, during his high school and college years, through his and Craig’s journey from New York to South Carolina, and the countless other spontaneous selfie-pose photo shoots we were all blessed to partake in.

We cannot express our appreciation for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support shown to Thomas’ family & friends, especially Ms. Heather, Craig, and Craig’s parents, Ms. Ann & Lenny.

This GoFundMe has been established to support Craig and family with any unforeseen expenses incurred while they navigate this unexpected tragedy and begin the journey of healing.

With all our hearts, we cannot thank everyone enough.

We love you Thomas!
