Obituary for Roy Vaughn Graves Jr.

Roy Vaughn Graves, Jr. – 68 of Maynardville, went to his eternal home, November 4, 2019, surrounded by family and friends. He was a member of Hansard Chapel Methodist Church. His new life has begun, a life that will never know sickness, disease, sorrow or loss again. He is finally healed and made whole. Vaughn was so grateful for all his family and friends that were so supportive of him through the good and the hard times. He was owner and manager of Union Parts and Equipment in Maynardville for over 30 years, but his true legacy is his family, who he loved deeply. He was a loving, loyal husband, father, grandfather and friend.

Graves; grandchildren, Kaiden Paul, Walker, Emily, Lily and Eden Graves, Noah and Isaiah Scates and Luke Graves; sister, Melissa and husband Jimmy Carter; special cousin, Carolyn Lawson; and Gary Beason, whom he considered a brother.
