Nicholas Ross Marchione passed away on April 7, 2025, in a motorcycle accident, just over a week before his 22nd birthday.
Born on April 15, 2003, in East Stroudsburg Pennsylvania, Nick had recently earned his Bachelor’s degree in Nuclear Medicine Technology from AdventHealth University and was looking forward to walking across the stage to receive his diploma on April 21st. Nick is a 2021 graduate of University High School in Orange City. He played the trombone in the school's jazz ensemble as well as the marching band and the symphonic band. After High-school, Nick would play with the Intersection Big Band and the Orange City Community Orchestra.
Nick lived life with unparalleled intensity and joy, embracing each moment as his truest self. His love for his friends and family knew no bounds, and he was always eager to spend time with those closest to him. His devotion to his loved ones was unwavering, and his kindness and keen sense of humor touched everyone he encountered.
Nick is survived by his parents, Lauren and Peter Marchione; his brother, Alexander; his sister-in-law, Ashlee; his grandparents Peter and Irene Marchione; as well as his aunts, uncles, and cousins. He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Norman and Donna Gosney, and his paternal grandmother, Bonnie Garrity.
He is remembered with immense love by all who have crossed his path and his spirit will be cherished for eternity.
May the memory of Nicholas Ross Marchione bring comfort to all who were fortunate enough to live in his presence.
