Congrats Sandy!!!
Their son Landon graduated in the class of 2005 and resides in Denver Colorado.
Their daughter Morgan class of 2009 and resides in London.
They are both very honored to be selected as our Duo Parade Marshal, they are very proud to live in Sayre and have close ties to the community. This year the Sayre Alumni Association decided to have an honorary parade Marshal for the Alumni Parade. In January, our community as well as a host of family and friends lost Colter Jake Vaught, tragically. He grew up in the Sayre and Carter communities, later graduating from Sayre High School in 2001. After graduation he began his career in the oilfield. He loved life to the fullest and loved dishing out a hard time, just as much as he loved receiving the hard time. Colter was very active in the fire department of several local communities.
Thank you Colter your memory will live on.
