Federal Way, WA — It is with profound sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Nicole Vaughn, who departed this life far too soon on May 24, 2025, at the age of just 25. Her loss has left an irreplaceable void in the hearts of her family, friends, and the Federal Way community who knew and loved her.
Nicole was a radiant spirit — a daughter, sister, friend, and above all, a devoted mother to her young daughter, Aliyah. Her love for Aliyah was boundless and fierce. Every choice she made, every dream she had, was rooted in giving her daughter a beautiful, secure, and loving life. Nicole often spoke of Aliyah as her greatest joy and proudest accomplishment. Their bond was deep and pure — a love that transcends even this devastating loss.
Known for her vibrant personality, Nicole brought warmth and joy into any room she entered. She had a gift for lifting the spirits of others, offering laughter when it was needed most and comfort in moments of sorrow. Those who knew her speak of her infectious laugh, her spontaneous spirit, and her fierce loyalty to the people she loved.
Life was not always easy for Nicole, but she faced each challenge with resilience and courage. Her journey was one of strength — a quiet, steadfast strength that inspired those around her. She was a fighter in every sense of the word, never letting the weight of her battles take away her light. She stood tall for her family, especially for Aliyah, and poured her love into the lives she touched.
Nicole’s family is now navigating a grief that words can scarcely express. She was a beloved daughter and sister, whose absence is felt in every quiet moment, every shared memory, and every place where her laughter used to echo. In this time of unimaginable loss, her family asks for prayers, love, and support as they begin to heal from the heartbreak of saying goodbye.
Plans for a memorial service are currently being arranged, and details will be shared with the community in the coming days. The family welcomes those who wish to honor Nicole’s memory to come and celebrate the life of a young woman who gave so much of herself to others.
Nicole Vaughn will be remembered for her compassion, her unbreakable spirit, and her unwavering love as a mother, sister, daughter, and friend. Her legacy will live on through her daughter, in the hearts of her loved ones, and in the memories that will forever remind us of who she was — bright, beautiful, and unforgettable.
Rest in peace, sweet Nicole. Your love lives on, and you will be missed beyond measure.
