To the family of Martin Vaughan. My deepest sympathies. This man had great impact on my life, not only in Tulsa, but also in Oklahoma City. As a geologist and friend, Martin was a mentor and role model for many of us. He was greatly appreciated and will be fondly remembered. It was a blessing and a privilege to have known him.
