Nicholas Alan Rosselle, passed away in his home on Tuesday, July 1, 2025 at the age of 36. He is survived by his daughters, Skyla and Katalina, his wife Allyson (Smith) Rosselle, mother Victoria (Harris) Rosselle, sister Chelsey Arnold, as well as many other family members and friends.
Taken from us far, far too early, Nick was the embodiment of the saying 'live fast and die young'. He loved to chase adrenaline and always lived life on the edge. With a devilish smile and wit that could charm anyone, he made friends constantly and could make anyone laugh. He was the life of the party and you knew Nick was around when you heard his signature loud 'WOOOH!' yell. He loved to have a good time and was damn good at it.
Although he had his share of hurdles, Nick was a fighter. He never gave up and was always trying to make a better life for himself and his family. Nick learned to build and restore log homes and started his own business specializing in it, just like his dad had. He also practiced professional upholstery and was interested in any form of business. He was an extremely hard worker and always chased his big dreams.
Despite surviving two nearly lethal motorcycle accidents, Nicholas loved riding his Harley. He would ride it year round, and felt his best on his bike. Nick also loved being outside; hunting, riding a quad, fishing on the boat, or just sitting around the campfire-he was at home in the outdoors.
More than anything, the best part of Nicholas was his heart. Those who knew him well, knew he would give the shirt off his back to help someone he loved. He would protect his family and friends fiercely. He was funny, witty, and smart. He constantly blazed his own path. He loved life and always lived like each day was his last.
Nicholas's friends and family meant so much to him. He was proud to carry the Rosselle name and pass it on to his girls. His wife, Allyson was his rock, always supporting and loving him through all of life's adventures. His mom, Victoria dedicated her life to raising Nicholas along with his sister, and he will forever be her baby boy. Nick and his sister, Chelsey, always had each other's backs, through thick and thin, in the way only siblings can. But above all, he loved his daughters with every cell in his body.
If he were able, he would tell you that they were his best accomplishment and the brightest part of his life. Even through his hardest days, his love for Skyla and Katalina is what kept him going. He loved his girls more than anything in this world. They will remember him with fond memories of a dad who played with them, protected them, and taught them. They loved spending time with him at camp, taking naps together on the couch, and always snacking on too many donuts. Nick's family is heartbroken knowing the girls will grow up without him near, but are blessed that he will watch over them as the best guardian angel. His family will raise the girls to know their dad's love, and foster them to grow into strong women who embody the best parts of their daddy.
Nicholas always said he knew he would die young. Though too short, he lived a full life, full of adventure, and never feared what might come next. Although we are all left shattered by his passing, we are comforted that he is no longer struggling with physical or mental pain.
He is reunited with his best friend, his dad, Alan, in heaven. They are surely creating havoc or throwing one big party up there.
At this time there are no formal services planned. Once the family has had time to heal, they will plan a celebration of life. If you want to celebrate Nick, please share a memory here. And hell, he would probably want you to have a shot and a beer in his honor. Thank you all for loving him, he loved you all so much.
