Nathan Craig Hollman

Nathan Hollman, 39 years old, was killed in a tragic vehicle collision in the early morning of October 19, 2023 on his way to work in Northern Idaho. Nathan leaves behind his wife, Lyndsey Hollman, and their two children, Katelyn (10) and Ethan (8). He also leaves his sisters, Anjuli, Alydia, and Adrianna; his mom, Catherine; and his grandpas, Frank Villines and Dale Hollman. This loss is both shocking and devastating.

Funds raised will go to help support Lyndsey and the family with funeral and celebration of life costs, any remaining funds raised after all funeral costs are covered will benefit Katelyn and Ethan's college funds (Nathan's two kids).

Nathan grew up in Oregon on his family's Christmas Tree Farm. Nathan learned the value of hard work and perseverance from an early age in life helping his parents manage their farm. Those lessons of hard work and perseverance would help him through his teenage years and early adulthood after losing his dad when he was 16. Then again when Catherine needed him to run the tree lot while she cared for Anjuli at UCSF during her battle with cancer. Nathan was the backbone for his family during tough times.

Nathan was faced with many of his own hardships over the years, including a near fatal accident a few years ago. We've all acknowledged the feeling that we were blessed to have this second chance of life with him, and watched as he used his hardships to witness to others so that they may find hope and strength. Nathan strove to be positive and upbeat, joking around, teasing those he loved and cared for, and always playing the role of big brother to his three little sisters. He cherished his life with his beloved wife and kids.

Nathan loved being outdoors fishing, crabbing, prospecting, building camp fires and most of all, camping with family; Nathan and Lyndsey were even planning a family camping trip the weekend of his untimely death.

The family thanks you for your kindness, love, support and generosity. Please keep the family in your prayers as they navigate the next few days, weeks, months, and years in this new reality. As Katelyn describes, "This feels like I'm having a bad nightmare and I just need to wake up."

Nathan was a loving husband, brother, son, friend and co-worker. His life may have been taken from us at a young age, but his memory and smile will live within us.
