Lyle Helke Obituary, Death – Lyle Helke of White Bear Lake, Minnesota has sadly passed away. Saturday, September 30th, marks a special day for all those whose lives were touched by the remarkable soul of Lyle Helke.
Friends, family, and community members are invited to come together to remember and celebrate the life of Lyle in a unique and heartwarming event: “5 Miles for Lyle.” Lyle Helke was more than just a name; he was a cherished friend, a beloved family member, and a source of inspiration for all who knew him. To honor his memory and legacy, a gathering will take place at the White Bear Lake South Campus track at 10 am.
The event will involve walking, running, biking, or even scooting, welcoming everyone to participate in their own way. The 5-mile distance symbolizes the bond shared with Lyle and the cherished memories etched in the hearts of all who knew him. The event is not a race; instead, it is an opportunity to join in solidarity.
Remembering Lyle with each step, pedal, or scoot along the route. Whether you choose to complete the entire distance or participate in part, your presence will contribute to the collective tribute to a dearly missed individual. In addition to the physical aspect of the event, a touching gesture is in the works—a book filled with heartfelt memories of Lyle that will be gifted to his beloved wife, Connie, and family.
Participants are encouraged to share their cherished memories, funny anecdotes, or heartwarming stories of Lyle that showcase the impact he had on their lives. To share your memories, you can reach out to cassandrasimmonsfitness@gmail.com or message directly if you don’t have a messenger.
The event organizers extend their heartfelt apologies to those who were mistakenly tagged but were not part of cross country, as they wholeheartedly intended to include everyone who held Lyle dear. This day of remembrance is a testament to the enduring bonds of friendship, love, and community that Lyle Helke fostered throughout his life. As we gather to celebrate his memory, let us find strength and comfort in each other’s presence and hold close the memories of a cherished friend who has left an indelible mark on our lives.
