David Vaughn & Tiffany Anton Talk Vaughn's Monument Works

In this episode, Tiffany Anton sits down with David Vaughn of Vaughn's Monument Works, a family-owned business that has been a part of Cookeville since 1946. David shares stories of his father, who began the business by selling monuments door to door, and reflects on the memories of growing up around the shop — including childhood pranks and time spent alongside the crew. He discusses how he and his brother stepped into their father's shoes, continuing the legacy while adapting to modern processes. David also offers a behind-the-scenes look at how monument delivery has evolved over the decades, and explains the materials and styles most commonly requested by families today.
