Thanks to Ray Barron of Two Time Polka for this news; Ray writes:

Just heard today that a friend of mine, Ron Kavana, is unwell and is hospitalised at the moment. Some friends of his have set up a GoFundMe page at this link: https://gf.me/u/ytz6g2

You may not know Ron but he was in many great bands such as Juice on the Loose, Balham Alligators, Loudest Whisper, and the Alias Ron Kavana band.

He’s a great guitar and mandolin player with a special feel for gospel music. I’m sure lots of people who visit your blog will know him and may want to donate.

Donations for Ron can be made here.

Update 8 Sept.: Two-thirds of the €20,000 goal has so far been raised. Organiser Katie Theasby writes:

Blown away by your support so far, thank you so much. Quick update; Ron is out of hospital and is now staying with a friend until his home is ready to welcome him back. He has a long road ahead with dialysis but is so glad to be out.
