UPDATE: Telemiracle 38 raises $5,285,744
Telemiracle is a tradition among many in Saskatoon, but for one family, the connection has spanned generations.
Lacey Hickson’s family took to the stage today to present a $425,000 donation courtesy of Hickson’s great aunt and uncle.
Hickson said Elmer and Doris Kohlmann spent the better part of their lives as the primary care givers to their daughter, Linda, who was born with cerebral palsy.
“Their life was their farm (near Rabbit Lake) and their daughter,” Hickson said, adding her aunt was an avid supporter of Telemiracle for many years.
