MEMORIAL
DONATIONS
Steven
Kincaid of Topsfield, MA recently emailed us about his late
father’s love of country music. His father, William C.
Kincaid, was a big fan of Bob Wills, “The King of Western
Swing.” And each year, on or around his late father’s April
11 birthday, Steve tries to make a donation specifically to
country and western non-profit organizations promoting the
music of Bob Wills. This year, Steven honored the memory of
his late father by donating $100 to THMF. Thank you, Steven,
your father’s memory lives on in the music of Bob Wills and
in the programming we produce for the community each year.
Would you like to honor the
memory of a family member or friend with a donation to THMF?
