Monrad (Monte) Holm

Monte Holm passed away on Wednesday, May 3, 2006 in Moses Lake. Born May 13, 1916 in Clarkston, Monte was the fifth child of Nels and Gertrude (Hunhammer) Holm. Monte's life was unique in that growing up in times of hardship, the Great Depression, World War II, he experienced far greater adventures than most men. Leaving home at 13 years of age, Monte forged a life that included herding sheep in Montana, living the "hobo" life for six years, riding the rails throughout the country, serving in the U.S. Army during WWII and etching a golden career as a scrap/junkman in Everett and Moses Lake. His hard work, love of life and a constant concern for his friends, endured Monte to all who met him. "I've never had a bad day," was his favorite saying, and the gift of Werther's hard candy to all he met was Monte's signature greeting.
