Community rallies behind family of woman who died in crash near O’Fallon

Support has been pouring in for the husband and four sons of a Troy woman who died following a two-vehicle crash near O’Fallon.

Cesilie Huebner, who would have turned 36 this Tuesday, died Wednesday following a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Scott Troy Road and O’Fallon Troy Road near O’Fallon, authorities said.

Huebner’s funeral service will be at 1 p.m. Thursday at First Baptist Church of O’Fallon at 1111 E. Highway 50, according to the church. Visitation will be from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday at the church.

She is survived by her husband, Cory, and sons Jaxon, Levi, Maverick and Adler.

There are several ways to help support the Huebner family:

A link to a Meal Train page was posted on the First Baptist Church’s KidsLife Facebook page. People can help the family by signing up to make a meal for them.

There are two GoFundMe pages established to help the family.

The first page is titled “Honoring Cesilie’s memory: caring for her family.”

“She spoke of love not as a feeling that visits, but as a life that is chosen and kept,” the page states. “That love shaped their home and now breathes on in the four boys they raised together, and in the life Cory now carries forward with a love that keeps watch and a will that does not surrender, even in the ache and absence of Cesilie, the woman who loved them with her whole self.”

The second GoFund Me campaign is titled “Supporting Cory Huebner’s family after tragic loss.”

Cory Huebner works for Object Computing Inc. of St. Louis County and the company started the page.

“Our teammate, Cory Huebner, tragically lost his wife in a car accident this week and our hearts go out to him and his four children during this incredibly difficult time,” the page states.
