Anthony Kollmann, 19, passed away on Sunday, January 13, 2008 doing what he loved, extreme downhill skiing in Canyon Creek Drainage, Fiberglass Hill near Columbia Falls, Montana. He was born on June 4, 1988 in Rapid City, South Dakota to Robert and Laurie (Rathman) Kollmann.
At a young age, Anthony moved with his family to Billings where they lived until he was 5 years old. Moving to Kalispell, he began his education attending Edgerton Elementary and graduating from Flathead High School. Anthony was a phenomenal and extreme athlete. As a member of the Big Mountain Race Team and the Big Mountain Bike Team, he was able to travel the Northwest competing. He was raised in a family that were avid campers, a characteristic he continued with his friends. Anthony was also frequently seen around Kalispell, shredding with his buddies on inline skates. He was blessed to have been exposed to such a full rich life, in an amazingly short time.
After graduating, Anthony enjoyed working in excavating with Doug Thole and Mike Ludivig.
Anthony is survived by his parents: Robert and Laurie Kollmann, sisters: Amy and Ashley all of Kalispell, his maternal grandfather: Gene Rathman and his paternal grandmother: Gertrude Kollmann. Anthony is also survived by many loving aunts, uncles, cousins and dear friends.
Johnson Mortuary and Crematory is caring for Anthony’s family.
