A couple weeks ago, we attended this concert in honor of Holly. It was one of the most moving musical evenings I've ever witnessed: a testament to the power of love and the ability of the human spirit to surmount incredible difficulties.
Heidi asked Holly's friends to sing "What a Wonderful World" for one of the numbers. You'll see that Holly dedicated the song to Clara (not Barker), a friend who has also been dealt a raw deal with serious health problems. The photo in the background is of Clara and Holly in the hospital, but this time Holly was not the patient.
Sydney is on the front row, fourth from the right. The group practiced two times prior to the concert.

P.S. Briton also played the ever-popular-with-the-8-and-under-crowd, "Orange Burrito." If you want the video, we'll send it to you personally :).
