It is with great sadness we report that Holly Hoglund Klein of Hoglund Bus & Truck Company was tragically killed in a car accident on March 3, 2015.

Hoglund Klein, 44, became the third-generation family owner of Hoglund Bus Company in 1999, taking over from her parents. As President and Owner, Holly led an era of expansion and growth for the Hoglund Companies. She grew their sales territory in Minnesota and Iowa, taking on several new product lines, and expanded the Commercial Bus Sales into Wisconsin as well. She opened satellite service locations in Roseville and Lakeville. In 2007 she helped found a new company, Hoglund Body and Equipment, opening a full-service bus and truck body shop. During her 15 years with the company, Holly's leadership has overseen growth from a local bus dealer with 40 employees to a regional leader in the transportation industry approaching nearly 90 employees. Holly's crowning achievement was overseeing Hoglund's awarding of 2013 National Dealer of the Year for IC/Navistar.
