Send a link to a friend 

[November 09, 2013]  Kaylee Helton is a 14-year-old graduate of New-Holland Middletown School and currently enrolled at Lincoln Community High School. She is the daughter of Jr. Eskew and Missy Armbrust-Helton.

Kaylee recently suffered a pulmonary embolism and nearly lost her life. She was most recently listed in critical, but stable condition at a hospital in St. Louis.

On Sunday at 5 p.m., there will be a special candlelight prayer vigil for Kaylee in Scully Park in Lincoln. The public is invited and encouraged to come out and lift their voices on behalf of Kaylee, her family, friends and physicians.

In addition, plans are being made to establish an account at CEFCU in Lincoln where donations can be made to assist the family with their financial needs at this time.

The organizers of Christmas Mustang Style in New Holland have also announced they will have a quarter auction during their Christmas event on Nov. 23, with proceeds to go to Kaylee's family.

Also, there will be food, raffles and a bake sale. Lincoln real estate agent Seth Goodman has donated a hot air balloon ride with him to be raffled at the Mustang Christmas. All proceeds are to benefit Kaylee and her family.
