Nicholas Stone Paschen passed away Tuesday May 20th, 2025 at the age of 28. Nick was the devoted son of Anne Kemsley Paschen. Nick leaves his loving sister Katherine Paschen and brother Cole Paschen, grandmother Elizabeth Kemsley and Leslie "Bunny" Douglass, father Herbert Christian Paschen III, lifelong friends Sam Johnston and Brady Staves and his dog Gus. Nick was known for his intelligence, playful character, charisma, humor and the love he had for his many friends. Nick grew up in Alta, Wyoming where he was homeschooled with his brother and sister. At a young age, Nick showed a passion for reading and a gift for memorization. This evolved into Nick's love of music and singing the many songs he knew by heart to his friends and family. In 2012, their life together took them to Whitefish, Montana where he enjoyed skiing, weightlifting, shooting, fishing and hanging out with his buddies. Throughout his life Nick valued connection with others. His passion for his family and friends was endearing and he had a special way to make you feel known and loved.
