Support for The Helle Family

Hello All,

For the past two years, our colleague and friend Jeff Helle has been courageously battling Neuroendocrine Tumor (NET) Cancer. Throughout this journey, Jeff has remained unwavering in his positivity, dedication, and commitment to the CBI team in Newton.

Jeff and his wife Kaela have been married for four years and are proud parents to two beautiful children- Tessa, who will turn three this September, and Cooper, the newest addition to the Helle family, born in 2024.

Kaela has been apart of the extended CBI family for many years, attending weekly gatherings at Saddle Up Saloon and factory events in years past.

Jeff's passions include moto GP racing, golf, and his family. Some of the fondest CBI memories the team has are from far outside the 4 walls in Newton, but he will leave a lasting legacy in the machines designed in recent years. Jeff has always put others first, including mentoring many young engineers and team members from other departments at CBI.

A cornerstone of CBI’s engineering department for the past eight years, Jeff has made a lasting impact through his expertise and character. As he and his family face ongoing challenges, our goal is to support them as much as possible with current and future expenses during this difficult time.
