Autumn Paulson Obituary

On September 21, 2025 my Sweet Autumn Rayne Paulson, has been called home to God.  She took our two dogs with her, all victims of a house fire in the middle of the night.

Autumn’s passing impacted her school and the community where she lived.  She loved to playing volleyball, tennis, basketball, and pickleball.  She also enjoyed ice skating, riding bike, running, swimming, shopping, music, friends, baking, playing with her dogs, driving with her brother, spending time with her sister, and painting with her mom.

Autumn’s smile lit up a room and her personality fixed a bad day into a good day.  She truly was amazing.  Autumn was an organ donor and she is living on through several people she saved.  I hope, one day. I can be even half the person that she ever was.  Our hearts are completely shattered.  She will be missed every day by her mom, dad, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends, teachers, nurses, doctors, bus drivers, and neighbors.

Autumn was a student at Dakota Meadows.  She was involved in track, volleyball, and was soon starting baby sitting class.  She was calling animal shelters to volunteer in the spare time.  She wanted to make the world a better place.  Even with Type 1 Diabetes she never had any limits.  Her final dream was to be a donor.  We let her fulfill her dream to be a life saver for others.  Even after her death, she still makes me so proud.  Autumn was amazing, to everyone she met.  She is greatly missed by teachers, family, the community, and many friends.  The world will never be the same.  We all love you my precious baby girl. 

A Celebration of Autumn’s Life will be held from 1- 5pm on Sunday, October 19, 2025 at Woodland Hills Funeral Home.
