From: Roger in Baltimore

Hello everyone. I thought many might be interested in the following since Art Thieme's friends helped him out.

"Folk Alliance is pleased to announce that Rosalie Sorrels is our
newest Legacy Life member. We recently received an anonymous donation
that fully funded her Life Membership in the Folk Alliance.
Congratulations to Rosalie, and thanks to everyone who contributed.

The Legacy Life Membership is a Life Membership purchased by a group
of members on behalf of an individual who is a personal hero to those
members. This recogniiton program started in march 2003. So far we
have completed the membership drives for Art Thieme, and now for
Rosalie.

Contributions have been made towards the memberships of Utah Phillips,
Jack Hardy, and Caroline and Sandy Paton. Additional contributions can
be made for any of these potential Legacy Life members in amouns of
$20 or more to reach the $1000 goal. To begin a fund for a new
nominee, please contact the Folk Alliance office at fa@folk.org or
(301) 588-8185."

You can send your contribution toward Life memberships for any nominee at any time to the Folk Alliance office. If you want to start a fund for someone yourself, send in your $50 seed money with the person's name and contact information, we'll announce it and get the ball rolling.

Thanks, RiB- I did check Allan's link, found Sandy and Caroline listed with the others (Art, Rosalie Sorrels, and Jack Hardy) and emailed the "contact us" for more info. Although Sandy and Caroline are listed with the others, it's true, their membership is not yet accomplished. My check will be sent this week- I'm not sure if folks really appreciate what these two have done for folk music and folk musicians over the years. My own debt to them is enormous!
