Holly Marie Tollefson

Holly Marie Tollefson, born on June 10, 1982, in Olympia, Washington, left this world on June 3, 2025, in Dalton Gardens, Idaho. She was a vibrant soul whose kindness and welcoming nature deeply touched the lives of everyone she encountered. Holly's spirit radiated warmth, and her infectious sense of humor always made others feel at ease.

A proud graduate of Olympia High School, Holly dedicated approximately twenty years of her career to Costco, where she built lasting friendships and earned the respect of her colleagues. She ventured into entrepreneurship, becoming the owner of Evans Custom Construction, a testament to her determination and hard work.

Holly was passionate about her family and cherished every moment spent with them. She was a devoted spouse to Evan Tollefson and a loving mother to her daughters, Lilly and Laycie Tollefson. Her daughters were the light of her life, and she took great joy in sharing her interests with them, whether it was through boating, RZR ripping adventures or dirt biking, or nurturing Holly's love for soccer.

The memories of Holly are abundant, particularly her love for gift-giving and capturing moments through pictures. She embraced life’s adventures wholeheartedly, whether that meant traveling, enjoying snow sports, or tearing up the dirt trails on motorcycles. Each of these pursuits brought her joy, and she carried that joy into every interaction with her family and friends.

Holly is survived by her loving spouse Evan, daughters Lilly and Laycie, her devoted parents Rob and Carlynn Koden, her brother Jeff Koden, and her sister Lindsey Koden. She joins her beloved brother Jeff, who sadly passed away in 2008, in eternal rest.

Holly's remarkable spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those fortunate enough to know her. Her laughter, her love, and her unwavering kindness will be cherished and remembered by family and friends alike. As we honor her memory, we are reminded of the light she brought into the world and the lasting legacy she leaves behind.
