On Wednesday, July 15, 2026, our lives were shattered by an unimaginable act of violence. What began as a normal day ended in tragedy when Luke Hollifield was shot and killed in a sudden road rage confrontation in New Carlisle, Ohio. His wife was right there by his side; while she was physically uninjured, her heart and life for her and their 3 young children have been completely changed.
Luke was a deeply loved partner, friend, and family member whose life was taken far too soon. As his family struggles to process this overwhelming grief and the trauma of that afternoon, they are also faced with the immediate, compounding stress of unexpected financial burdens.
We have set up this fund to support his family as they navigate this dark time. Your donations will go directly toward:
• Funeral and memorial service costs to honor his memory.
• Immediate living expenses and bills to give her space to grieve without financial panic.
• Counseling and trauma support resources.
No amount is too small, and every single donation will help lighten the weight on her shoulders. If you are unable to give financially, please consider sharing this page with your network and keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, generosity, and support.
