Obituary for Nicholas Andrew Jensen
Nicholas Andrew Jensen, 26, beloved son of Jack and Arleen Jensen, died suddenly on September 19, 2022. Nicholas was born in Moscow, Russia on February 21, 1996. He came home to his waiting family in June 1998. He was the most loving son and brother. He was a joy.
Nicholas attended local Kennebunk schools, excelling at gymnastics, karate, wrestling, and skiing. He graduated from Cheverus High School in Portland, ME in 2013, where he was a member of the diving team and the sailing team. He graduated from the University of Maine in Orono, ME in 2018. He studied psychology, was an accomplished diver, a devoted leader of Active Minds, and contributed to and was inspired by the VEMI Lab. Nicholas went on to coach the Bates College Diving Team, worked as a Certified Recovery Advisor for AWARE, and was a passionate entrepreneur and the proud founder of Medallion Bio Plastics.
Nicholas was a deep thinker, a philosopher, and a seeker. He had a curious mind and was a life-long learner. Nicholas lived life with gusto. Whatever he did, he was always all in. He loved meeting people, having new experiences, making music, creating art, and writing poetry. He enjoyed an early morning surf, an afternoon sail, a midnight skate session. Most of all he appreciated the small things like a meaningful conversation, the perfect pun, a unique sunset, a piece of chocolate, or just finding a heart shaped rock. Through it all, Nicholas made a lasting impression on the world.
He is survived by his loving parents, Jack and Arleen Jensen; his brother, Matthew Jensen; his sister, Amelie Jensen; as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
To honor Nicholas would be to find joy in the smallest aspects of life while simultaneously bringing the most joy to the people around you.
