Paul Matthew Holmgren

December 15, 1999 — January 25, 2020

Paul Matthew Holmgren completed his life at the age of 20 years on the morning of January 25th, 2020. He passed away on campus at the University of Kentucky-Lexington. The beloved son of Tom and Renee (Werchan) Holmgren was born in Springfield, MO on December 15th, 1999, joining his sister, Hanna, and brother, Daniel. Graduate of Nixa High School (2018), Paul was a Sophomore at the University of Kentucky, studying Mining Engineering. He was loved by those around him. Endlessly kind and joyful, he was a friend to everyone. Paul excelled in academics, and his love of learning extended out of the classroom into his hobbies and extracurriculars. He enjoyed a wide array of music and played percussion and banjo. He achieved the rank of Eagle Scout in 2015, and was an alumnus of the Nixa theater department. He enjoyed the outdoors, playing video games, spending time with his friends and family, his Jeep, and who could forget Paulfest. Paul was a beloved child of God, baptized into the church in 2000 and confirmed in 2014. He volunteered at church, running A/V and playing in the praise team. His family looks forward to joining him in the loving embrace of God.
