Pass it on if you want. - -Jess Some fans of Tracy Grammer have taken it upon themselves to start a fund to raise money to replace her aging violin. Tracy's current violin is one she has had since the 7th grade and is 220 years old. It has been having various problems and several violin-makers and repairmen have told her she will need to retire it, there is nothing more to do for it. Since the death of her partner, Dave Carter, in July 2002, Tracy does not have a lot of extra money for things like this. Playing the violin is an integral part of the beautiful music Tracy brings us, that has touched so many of our lives. Many people feel that this is a perfect way to give back to her. A web site has been set up where you can donate via PayPal and also read Tracy's full story about the violin (from her last email newsletter), which she and Dave had dubbed "The Wounded Healer". http://thewoundedhealer.com If you don't want to do PayPal or credit cards, you can send a check to the address below (which is Tracy's mom, who handles her merchandise and has agreed to help with this).
