It is with deep shock and overwhelming sadness that we share the sudden passing of Nick Holland on July 22, 2023, at the age of 52. As a family, we are utterly heartbroken by this loss. Nick leaves behind his partner Michelle Stewart, his two children, Robie and Sophie Holland, his brother Philip, niece Payton, his mother Joan, father Tony, and his former wife, Julie Giffin, who is also the mother of his children. Nicholas Anthony Holland is one of the 3 victims of N.S. flooding missing persons.
Nick A. Holland was an exceptionally talented musician who had a profound love for music throughout his life. He was involved in several bands, and his passion for music was evident to everyone who knew him. At the time of his passing, he was a proud member of the heavy metal group “Hogtooth.” His dedication to his craft and the music community will be deeply missed.
The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the Search and Rescue teams, private citizens, and the members of the band “Hogtooth” for their relentless efforts in trying to find Nick. Their tireless work and support during this difficult time have been truly remarkable and deeply appreciated.
To honor Nick’s life and remember the cherished memories he left behind, there will be a gathering on Friday, July 28, from 1-3 p.m. at Ronald A. Walker Funeral Home, located at 13549 Peggy’s Cove Road, Upper Tantallon. In lieu of flowers, should you wish, donations can be made to the charity of your choice.
We invite those who knew Nick to join us in paying tribute to his life and the legacy he has left behind. He had a great admiration for Lemmy, one of his favorite musicians, and often quoted him, saying, “A kid once said to me, ‘Do you get hangovers?’ I said, ‘To get hangovers, you’d have to stop drinking.’” Cheers, Nick.
During this time of sorrow, we are grateful for the support and condolences we have received. If you wish to share your thoughts and memories of Nick, you can do so at www.rawalker.ca.
Let us remember Nick for his musical talents, his love for life, and the impact he had on all those who had the privilege of knowing him. May his spirit live on through the music he loved and the memories we hold dear.
