John (Joan) Ohlinger, has been a beloved part of the Central Texas music community for many years—playing stand-up bass around countless campfires, performing with local bands, and volunteering at the Kerrville Folk Festival Teen Music Camp for 11 years in a row. Joan’s passion for music and generosity have touched so many lives. Now, Joan needs our help. Recently diagnosed with spinal stenosis, Joan must undergo immediate back surgery and take time off work to recover. This fundraiser will help cover living expenses during her recovery so she can focus on healing without financial stress. If Joan has ever played a song that lifted your spirits or shared a smile around a campfire, please consider donating and sharing this campaign. Every contribution makes a difference.
