FANNIN COUNTY, Ga. – On April 1, 2024, five of six children in the Holsonback family of Fannin County were involved in a tragic car accident.

While out of town, the Holsonback children were in an accident involving a semi truck, according to the GoFundMe page set up in their honor.

Tragically, one of the children did not survive the crash. He was a junior at Fannin County High School.
