Support for Vicknair Family in Tragic Times

Hello Everyone! My name is Candice Cooper, Co-Founder of the Austin Honey Badgers Track Club and I am pleading with our community to support the Vicknair Family.

Supporting the Vicknair Family #BecauseYouKare

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Lyndsey Vicknair, a beloved member of our Austin Honey Badger community. Lyndsey was a victim of senseless violence during the Juneteenth Celebration on June 15, 2024, in Round Rock, Texas at Old Settlers Park. She leaves behind her husband, Kevin Vicknair, and their three young children: Kenzi (7, affectionately known as "Shoestrings" by Coach Cooper), Kairo (4), and Kya (1).

Lyndsey's life was marked by her contagious smile, thoughtfulness, and her unwavering willingness to help others. Her absence is felt deeply by all who knew her.

We have created this GoFundMe to support the Vicknair family during this incredibly difficult time. All proceeds will go towards family expenses and compensating for the loss of income. Kevin will now have to support the children alone.

We invite you to join us in honoring Lyndsey’s memory by contributing to this fund. Every donation, no matter the size, will help Kevin and the children navigate these challenging times.

Thank you for your generosity and support. Please use the hashtag #BecauseYouKare

(K for Kenzi, Kairo and Kya)

Lets wrap our arms around this beautiful family and show them that we Kare.

July 5, 2024 Update: Thank you all for your continued donations. Kevin, Kenzi, Kairo and Kya are trying very hard to adjust to the new normal. Moving forward after such a tragic loss is not easy. Lyndsey is missed tremendously. Please continue to keep them in your prayers.
