In Loving Memory of Nicole Vaughn

In Loving Memory of Nicole Vaughn

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Nicole Vaughn, who left us on May 24th, 2025, at only 25 years old. Nicole was born on October 5th, 1999, and in her short time here, she brought love, laughter, and unforgettable memories to everyone who knew her.

Nicole was a mother, daughter, sister, cousin, niece, granddaughter, and a fighter. She struggled with life and addiction from a young age and fought hard to overcome it. She tried again and again, hoping to build a better life for herself and, most importantly, for her 5 year old daughter, Aliyah King Vaughn. Nicole loved her baby girl with all her heart. Even in her darkest moments, her love for Aliyah never wavered.

Nicole’s passing has left a hole in our family that can never be filled. She now rests in peace with her mother, Crystal Vaughn, and we trust she is finally free from pain and struggle.

We are raising funds to cover Nicole’s funeral expenses, allowing us to give her the farewell she deserves. Any additional funds will go directly to supporting her daughter, Aliyah, her greatest joy in life. The money will be placed in an account to help meet Aliyah’s future needs and give her the stability Nicole wanted so deeply to provide.

This loss is devastating, and while we wish we could have saved Nicole from the pain she carried, we can honor her by surrounding her daughter with the love, care, and security she deserves.

If you feel moved to give, we would be deeply grateful. Please also keep our family in your prayers and especially lift up Aliyah, that she may be covered in love, grace, and guidance as she grows.

A Prayer for Nicole and Aliyah

Heavenly Father,

We lift Nicole into Your arms. May she find the peace in Your presence that she could not find here on Earth. Wrap her daughter Aliyah in Your love, protect her tender heart, and bless her with comfort, guidance, and a future full of hope. Surround this family with strength in the days ahead, and remind us all that love never dies; it lives on in every memory, every prayer, and in the legacy Nicole leaves behind.

Amen.

️ With love,

Nicole’s Family
