"The Alexander D. Holmes Memorial Fund is in loving memory of the musician whose endless imagination continues to inspire us.  Alex Holmes was a talented guitarist, brother, cousin, nephew, and friend.  Alex forged his own path in life and in music.  With this fund we aim to honor Alex's wishes, his life's work, and his memory - and to spread his inspiration and positive impact further beyond those who were fortunate enough to know and love him."
