Jack Dixon Benefit

Thanks to everyone that participated in the July benefit for Jack Dixon.  There were too many people that participated to be able to thank them all individually, but we would like to say a special thanks to the Bonded Brothers of Bluegrass, Hillside Bluegrass Fesival and the North Florida Bluegrass Association for their efforts in helping to organize and promote this very worthwhile event.  The outpouring of support is a wonderful testament to the character of Jack Dixon and the many lives he has touched through the years both as a musician and as a friend.  Throughout the weekend we heard so many wonderful stories about times spent with Jack and the things he has done to promote Bluegrass Music and to help others.  Although Jack was too weak to attend, we all felt that he was with us in spirit.  Once again, thank you for all of your help and support.

Sadly, Jack left us on August 12, 2001 at 4:00am.  He has been a wonderful friend to us and to so many others.  Jack has devoted much of his time to promoting bluegrass music.  Many young bluegrass musicians are playing now because of his encouragement and support.
